In depth

Verdict

Atlanta Brave is penalised for winning at Chepstow while Ffos Las winner Spring Meadow was well beaten carrying a penalty at Warwick last time. Hauraki Gulf was narrowly beaten at the latter track but that was nearly a year ago now and INCHAGOILL LADY is preferred. The latter found only one too good over track and trip when fitted with a tongue-tie and looks to have decent claims on these terms. Red Happy has won over both hurdles and fences though would prefer a shorter trip.
