In depth

Verdict

ADAMARIS (NAP) made mistakes when held up to get the longer trip at Perth last month. He is better than that having run well in handicaps twice previously at Market Rasen. Second here in July, Book of Secrets made all at Market Rasen next time but had limitations exposed there later. Manimole looks a bigger danger with her latest second over 2m4f here having been franked. Hobie has had a break since finishing last of three at Stratford in May while Sobegrand was pulled up at Market Rasen in July after winning a Stratford maiden.
