In depth

Verdict

Chives could only manage third at Market Rasen when bidding for a hat-trick though he wasn’t beaten far. VORASHANN has a 7lb penalty to contend with after a recent course and distance success but that’s negated by Ellie Vaughan’s allowance and first-time blinkers may bring further progress. Green Or Black slides further down the weights looking to end a long losing run while Naizagai hasn’t raced since April but The Twisler has had a recent outing on the Flat.
