In depth

Verdict

Plenty can be given a chance in this but WHOOPSY DAISY finished ahead of a subsequent winner when going very close over track and trip last time and gets a tentative vote on that form. Foxcover also finished runner-up here on his latest start when just ahead of Kicking The Can and Fearless Lad made the frame over course and distance back in February. Well Painted landed a gamble on his return to action at Windsor during the week and is not badly treated despite carrying 6lb extra having tumbled down the weights last year. Classic Villager ended last season with a couple of placed efforts on the all-weather and is another to consider.
