In depth

Verdict

Oakley Rambo has claims on his second behind Pie High over this course and distance earlier in the month and was slightly unlucky on his latest start in which Sempar Paratus and Prairie Dunes both finished behind. Ace Of Hearts showed fine battling qualities to hold on in a tight finish last time but had little to spare at the finish and may struggle to overcome a subsequent 4lb rise so the vote goes to Enchanted. George Margarson's charge was a progressive type last term and shaped as though there was more to come when a strong finishing third on her recent comeback over C&D. She should go close with the outing under her belt on her preferred quick surface.
