In depth

Verdict

The Steward’s record over timber suggests it may not wise taking too short a price about Jimmy Moffatt’s charge, especially over a new trip. MORRAMAN won over 3m between the flags but needs to bounce back from a poor run at Bangor. However, Abbie McCain takes off 7lb again and he was just beaten at Sedgefield two runs ago. Glenlora ran well for a long way at Hexham last month and will know more today.
