In depth

Verdict

Alton Bay couldn't quite get his head in front in bumpers but produced some fine efforts including a close second to the useful Pink Hat. Noble King made a promising debut at Punchestown in April but was a 25/1 chance when unshipping his rider at the start on a return visit last month. This doesn't look the toughest of maidens and he should get involved. OVERCALL has done well to finish in a place in a couple of decent maidens recently and this looks a good opportunity to get off the mark.
