In depth

Verdict

Waterloo Sunrise ran well at Wolverhampton at the backend of last year but disappointed on his return to this track. Footprint has had a dozen starts without being successful and was behind ATLAS PEAK when they finished 1-2 here last April. The latter has struggled subsequently but posted his best run for some time a couple of weeks ago and looks well enough treated to return to winning ways. Suspect Device was just behind in that latter event but that was his first start since August and he's no forlorn hope with that under his belt. Secret Hero is another with possibilities in an open event.
