In depth

Verdict

PUMP IT UP and Tiki Fire have both struggled in much better company since filling the places at Doncaster in December. The former is taken to come out best once again back at this level. Simply Red finished behind the above pair while Fiamette has a bit to find on these terms. Miss Curiosity has placed in a bumper and makes her hurdling bow along with Hang Up, whose best effort on the Flat came on the all-weather last year and has switched yards since.
