In depth

Verdict

Nothing is confidently omitted but BEEPEECEE and Pass The Cristal have been in fine form this term and could well fight things out in what could produce a tactical battle as both are best held up off the pace. There's little between the pair on the form book with the Hughes inmate just given the nod as Finley Marsh's 7lb claim may prove decisive. Al Mansor looks best watched after a couple of low-key runs but Whiteley and Still Waiting can not be discounted, especially as both could well prove suited by the drop back to 7f from a mile.
