In depth

Verdict

Cave Top has a decent chance of following up his Southwell victory of two weeks ago as he’s only been raised 4lb. Bridle Loanan will strip fitter today and Ellens Way is having only her fourth run over fences having placed at Warwick in the spring. Not for the first time, HUGO’S REFLECTION (NAP) didn’t last home over 3m at Southwell last month but he has winning form around here and has dropped a couple of pounds in the weights so looks the one to be on as The Brothers was very disappointing when favourite at Plumpton.
