In depth

Verdict

Broughtons Knight won at Kempton in October but a 4lb rise proved beyond him at this venue last time. It remains to be seen if AMAZING GRAZING fares any better having won a maiden race at Newcastle last time but he gets the vote ahead of the returning Ebtkaar. The latter was placed at Leicester in between a couple of modest efforts but hasn’t raced since June. Tellovoi has failed to build on an earlier second at Newcastle and Tulip Dress has been similarly disappointing.
