In depth

Verdict

Pads holds Rosie Fifty One on previous running and the two newcomers need a market check but this is probably going to prove a two-horse shoot-out. Westinmare is another strong chance over the two-day meeting for Gordon Elliott and stuck on well to score at Downpatrick a fortnight ago, albeit on very different ground conditions. She must go well but WIZARD'S SLIABH ran an equally promising race on the same day when runner-up at Uttoxeter to a potentially decent bumper sort in Alan KIng's Chato. She's certainly bred for the game as a daughter of King's Theatre and is taken to make the most of the 7lb she receives from the Elliott mare.
