In depth

Verdict

A competitive affair for a race of this type with several looking to have decent claims. Tudors Treasure wasn’t winning out of turn at Ffos Las last month, though is 7lb higher. I'm Still Waiting is unexposed and sports first-time headgear while Treackle Tart has only found one too good in her last two. Rebel Beat was third over a shorter trip here last month but Visandi may be best watched in his first run since November. REGAL GAIT tries a new trip but should be suited and he has his weight-for-age allowance to fall back on. Harry Whittington’s juvenile can get his head in front today.
