    In depth

    Verdict

    A very tricky handicap that may fall to Red River Rebel, with Sadler's Pride and Fleetfoot Mac put forward as the main dangers. The selection has started to find his form this finishing runner-up here, and at Warwick. The run here at Beverley was particularly promising as he was leading until the final strides before being overhauled by Sualda, a repeat of that performance should be good enough here. Sadler's Pride takes a step down in trip after disappointing over a mile and three-quarters last time and should figure in the finish. Meanwhile Fleetfoot Mac comes into the argument following a ;promising fourth behind Settlement Craic in a competitive handicap at Windsor. Dalriath is another who has been knocking on the door recently and is worth a mention, however Red River Rebel looks to have the best form on show and gets our vote.
