In depth

Verdict

Emigrated is penalised 6lb having completed a double at Wolverhampton with last week’s success. Tilsworth Lukey scored over track and trip last time though third-placed Sharp Operator re-opposes on better terms today while Ronni Layne steps up in trip having placed over 7f at Southwell when last in action. STEEL HELMET has yet to win but finished ahead of The Juggler when runner-up at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago and he gets the nod to go one better having slipped 10lb down the weights since the start of the year.
