        In depth

        Verdict

        Baby Steps and Jensue are penalised for their respective wins at Carlisle and Redcar with the former stepping up in trip. Immokalee ran better over 5f on her earlier debut than she did over today’s distance at Thirsk last time while Pontefract runner-up Dancing On A Dream is weighted to beat PASS THE GIN. But this is easier than the latter’s recent task at Newbury where she finished third and Andrew Balding’s filly gets the vote to show further progress and come out best.
