In depth

Verdict

This won’t take much winning but it remains to be seen how much ability Triptico retains. The Omen and Sergeant Pink also have plenty to prove at present but Wish In A Well won at Fakenham before going down narrowly at Fontwell, though is a couple of pounds out of the handicap. WHAT A DREAM is only a speculative selection as he’s only won at Ayr so far but he can’t get much lower in the weights and it’s hard to have much faith in Alchimix or Detour Ahead.
