In depth

Verdict

This will take some getting in testing ground and Radmores Revenge makes more appeal than Reindeer Dippin on that score. The former finished second over a shorter trip here last time but has gone close over 3m at Chepstow before. Dais Return scored over 3m at Bangor last month, though High Ransom could handle the underfoot conditions better and the latter looks a leading contender on his latest second at Wetherby. However, TIPPERING ticks all the boxes as it was heavy going when he was only beaten a neck over C&D last month. Sue Smith's hurdler gets the nod to go one better here with Gilwen Glory looking best of the rest.
