In depth

Verdict

UNFORGOTTEN bids for a hat-trick having won over track and trip on his handicap debut and first start since 2021. The Gosdens’ Lincoln entry can defy a 4lb rise and confirm latest running with Starshiba, Farasi Lane and Enough Already. Lord Rapscallion missed out on a treble when beaten here last month and steps up in trip along with Larado, who ran well for fourth at Wolverhampton last time.
