In depth

Verdict

Most of these appear out of form so we will side with recent winner Loughlorien, with Laurel Dawn and On The Trail put forward as the main dangers. Formerly with Richard Fahey, the selection has found a new lease of life since switching stables and was most impressive when landing a banded event at Carlisle last time.This event isn't a lot stronger and off a reasonable mark Loughlorien could be ready to follow up. Laurel Dawn last tasted victory back in June, but appeared to be returning to his best when running into third behind Kew The Music at Yarmouth last time. On The Trail has a bit to find with Laurel Dawn on Yarmouth running but didn't have the smoothest of passages and should get a lot closer to that rival today. Time To Remember represents strong connections so should be watched in the market, but Loughlorien is in top form and is taken to oblige.
