In depth

Verdict

ROBINSHILL has a welter burden but his young rider can claim 10lb and it’s a bonus that he’s still qualified for novice events as he’s already won three handicaps, one a Class 2. Oxwich Bay and Stay Out Of Court both bring decent bumper form to the table and Tom Scudamore rides the latter in preference to French import Martabot, who returns from a lengthy absence. Pop Rockstar has hinted at ability but it’s difficult to make a case for many of the others.
