In depth

Verdict

Rose Dobbin has three in this with Proud Gamble and Donapollo looking closely matched on their run together behind Vision De La Vie at Perth in a race in which Solway Legend was pulled up. The latter's stablemate Solway Dornal will probably need this but there possibilities about Cartmel winner Definite Ridge and King's Song in a modest handicap. TRAFFICKER is now 7lb lower than his last winning mark and was successful here early last year. He drops down a grade for this and shouldn't be far away.
