In depth

Verdict

Summit Like Herbie has found some form this winter but ALKOPOP was having only second run over fences when second to Fairlawn Flyer here last month. Toby Lawes’ novice travelled best for a long way that day and can reverse the form today with the winner, who is 7lb worse off. Little Red Lion slips further down the ratings and is eased in grade so warrants respect but Eden Flight has yet to fire since switching to the Venetia Williams yard.
