In depth

Verdict

Koi Dodville, a winner on the Flat in France, has scored twice over hurdles since joining David Pipe and a mark of 74 may underestimate the three-year-old. YAGOOD (NAP) has won four times since April and doesn't look like stopping any time soon judging by his easy victory over 2m here last month. A 5lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent another success though Bailarico has been here three times and won twice and arrives in good form. Socially Shady was in excellent form at this time a year ago and looked on the way back at Thirsk while Kalma scored here and at Wolverhampton before finding Class 4 company too hot to handle at Sandown.
