      In depth

      Verdict

      Likeashadow bids for a hat-trick of course wins raised 5lb while Alfred’s earlier success at Yarmouth came over 7f. Made In China has returned a beaten favourite the last twice now and drops back down in trip while Fly Pass looks no nearer winning. The betting suggested BERRY CLEVER was expected to go well at Wolverhampton on his handicap debut but he never recovered from an early setback and gets another chance in this.
