In depth

Verdict

MANETTI jumped poorly here two runs ago but was much better when back on song at Carlisle and a 4lb rise seem fair. Duc De Grissay is still a maiden but will have learned plenty from his second at Catterick whereas Kalaharry is making his debut over the larger obstacles, though has won four times over hurdles.
