In depth

Verdict

Willywont He, Cody and Baawrah are the three to concentrate on here and the vote is given to Cody. The selection plugged on at Uttoxeter last time when finishing behind Scarface but he is proven over this trip and as he also goes on the ground he looks the percentage call. Willywont He was an unlucky loser last time but he has since risen in the weights and this step-up in trip is not sure to suit. Baawrah finished in mid-division at Sedgefield when last seen out in a race won by High Country and as he has yet to prove that he stays this trip he is difficult to back with any confidence. Fly Tipper is game and consistent and could prove best of the rest, but for the winner we will return to Cody.
