In depth

Verdict

Winsley, Jaffa and Free Gift are the three to consider here, with the first named just getting the decision. Oliver Sherwood's seven-year-old has done very little wrong this campaign, but has only managed one victory. However he come up against an improving type last time and he does still look capable of winning off his current mark. Jaffa hasn't raced since April, but does go well fresh and has a course and distance victory under his belt, he should be involved in the finish. Free Gift hit winning form last time and he is expected to put in another good showing off his revised mark. Rookery Lad and Ornella Speed are two others worthy of a mention in a wide open affair, but our idea of the winner is Winsley.
