In depth

Verdict

Alsithee was a 100/1 chance when fourth of five at Pontefract though wasn't beaten all that far. Stable companion Neverwrongforlong missed the break and never got into it in a 1m1f Hamilton maiden so this looks between Sarrood, who was staying over 1m2f at Redcar, and WINTERWATCH, who led until well inside the final furlong over this trip at Leicester and will be suited by the tight track.
