In depth

Verdict

THE ABSENT MARE didn't find much when push came to shove at Cartmel last week but tries again off a pound lower mark and is probably the one to beat receiving weight all round. Lockedoutaheaven ran his best race so far over hurdles at Hexham last month while Quest Magic was third over course and distance off this mark last time. Shine A Diamond has place claims again but Roll Of Thunder has more to do under a penalty after landing a modest affair at Hexham and Dalstontosiloth returns from a lay-off.
