In depth

Verdict

Fingal's Cave landed a double at earlier in the year but looks in the handicappers grip now while Pumaflor was beaten only a neck at Nottingham last time and should go close again with an apprentice’s allowance in his favour today. But another chance goes to HEIR TO A THRONE as he was upped in class for the Hunt Cup at Thirsk on his latest start and had gone close in this grade at Redcar before that. Michele Strogoff is not badly treated on last year’s placed efforts and Georgian Bay has slid down the weights.
