Verdict
Longshadow went close behind New Youmzain at Pontefract last time. The latter is trained by Mick Appleby so he should have a good line on the chances of Adili. The latter is up 4lb for winning at Southwell while Honest Strike has done all his winning so far on the all-weather, though has had only a handful of starts on Turf. Cowslip and Madam Lilibet were both well beaten at Pontefract recently and the latter would prefer some cut in the ground while Golden Future will find this tougher than the amateurs' race he won at Musselburgh last August. MY DESTINATION ran well in better company at Catterick last time and went very close off today's mark at Thirsk last season - he gets the vote to finally come good.
