In depth

Verdict

Granny Anne looked well suited to Fibresand when scooting away with a Southwell handicap last month and hasn't performed as well on Polytrack. Neither Mrs Neat nor Aquilifier appeared to be putting everything in when they occupied the places behind Bill Page over the C&D and the former has since been beaten at Wolverhampton. INVESTMENT WORLD showed massive improvement when tackling Fibresand for the first time last month. He had earlier been well beaten here but was returning from a lay-off and, as he's related to several winners, he is probably on the upgrade and can gain his first success.
