In depth

Verdict

Kersivay, who finished runner-up in a Wolverhampton seller on Monday, has only run twice here and was well beaten on both occasions. Wishformore began her handicap career off 73 and she's down to 60 here despite running well in maidens on successive days last week. She should go well though this will be her fourth start in 19 days. All of RUBENSTAR's three Polytrack victories have come over today's C&D and he ran well enough behind Buxton here last week to suggest he is capable of gaining track victory number four. He just holds Decency on that form and Resplendent Alpha gained the last of his five career victories back in February 2009.
