In depth

Verdict

BOY IN A BENTLEY has had numerous opportunities and been beaten three times off this mark since October but he might enjoy this step back up in trip and supporters are sure to get a run for their money again. Sandhurst Lad will definitely appreciate this more searching test but these races are often ripe for an upset and Murphy's Nails is worth a market check having had just the one run over fences. Kerry Lee tries him in blinkers and he’s been very lightly raced. Top And Drop can be excused his latest run in Class 2 company and looks a threat to all with his yard in terrific form while Sutter's Mill is going well and has won over hurdles around here.
