In depth

Verdict

Samson may have a chance in this off bottom weight. Roll The Dough has already won twice over fences this season but was only fourth of this mark at Stratford last month. GENEROUS DAY looks the type to make a chaser this term and won over 2m2f over hurdles so is worth another try over this longer trip. Boagrius could also figure returning from a break but Night Of Sin may need softer going before finding some form. Gone Platinum was only beaten a nose at Ffos Las but has been raised 6lb for that.
