In depth

Verdict

Lorelei won over 2m at Wolverhampton in April but remains 10lb higher and Lady Makfi scored at the same track in between poor efforts on Turf. INTIMIDATOR has had just the five starts and posted his best effort over 2m at Kempton last month. This shorter strip should not be too much of an inconvenience and he gets a token vote in a poor handicap given the remainder have yet to win a race between them so far this year.
