In depth

Verdict

LEAPAWAY hasn’t travelled up from the west country for the good of his health. He has plenty of excuses when pulled up at Uttoxeter last month and there should be plenty more to come after just the three runs over the larger obstacles. Return Ticket found only one too good at Perth and Donald McCain will have been delighted with Shantaluze reappearance following a lengthy absence at Cartmel. Siannes Star needs more, however, while Shetland Bus may need the experience.
