In depth
Verdict
UNPLUGGED was beaten only a nose at Pontefract on his return to action and Serena Brotherton can steer him to victory in this. Something was amiss with Captain Haddock last time but he’d gone close under today’s amateur at Doncaster before that while Aegis Power is fitted with cheekpieces still looking to break his duck. Let Her Loose won three times last year but has struggled since last successful.
