In depth

Verdict

TIERRA VERDE defied a big weight to score at Taunton and looks well worth a try in this slightly higher grade on that evidence. She has gone up 6lb but is just preferred to Empreinte Reconce, second on her handicap debut at Chepstow and Hijran, who has raced in better company the last twice but may struggle to confirm Hereford running with Everlanes on worse terms. Foxtrot Juliet has placed the last twice at Catterick but was disappointing last time when long odds-on in the race won by the less-exposed Lassana Angel.
