In depth
Verdict
Red Flyer disappointed last time having earlier placed over track and trip while a couple of these return to action with a shout. Willyorwon't He placed at Beverley in August while Ridgeway Avenue finished runner-up at Yarmouth in the same month and both step up in distance. But this won’t take much winning and Archie Watson’s IMPERIAL SANDS could go close on his debut for a yard that can boast an impressive strike rate with it’s three-year-old runners so far this year.
