        In depth

        Verdict

        An interesting contest can go to Bravemore, whose form is working out well and he has enough scope to handle to challenges of Il De Maurice and Indian Pipe Dream, who both have a little to prove for one reason or another. The latter tries this trip for the first time and faces no easy task off a mark of 80 for his handicap debut. Whereas Il De Maurice is yet to race on turf and is not one to be taking short prices about considering the current form of his yard. I'm So Lucky is shaping up well and holds place claims if he handles the step up in trip. However, Bravemore is proven over the trip and, with his run behind The Geezer now looking a solid piece of form, Brian Meehan's charge gets a confident vote today.
