In depth

Verdict

ALESSANDRO ALGARDI is a long way clear of these on official figures and looks to have been found an ideal opportunity to get off the mark after his narrow defeat by Emporio at Tipperary. These Days was only beaten a length behind Limit Long here in November under Patrick Mullins. Jamie Codd takes over here with the winning rider on board Cordouan, a very easy winner of a Newcastle maiden when last seen in April last year. The selection's stable companion Camdeboo has been running in stronger company and wasn't disgraced in a Naas Listed contest in July.
