In depth

Verdict

Not an attractive betting proposition but DANE COTTAGE is worth another chance for the Ellison team. Heavily supported into favouritism at Leicester latest, she only managed a fairly nondescript fourth but is well worth another chance to justify that confidence off this mark in a weak contest. Hard Tackle finds himself with topweight despite finishing a well beaten last of seven last time but did have some fair form last spring. His yard tend to improve such types quite regularly. Playful Rose has just four runs over timber, showing promise on more than one occasion. She'll have needed her comeback run and has definite claims for a yard that do well here. Forever My Friend is hard to predict at present but has claims at his best.
