        In depth

        Verdict

        One or two of the usual suspects but we side with An Scaribh to take this at the expense of Home and Silver Spruce. It is worrying that An Scaribh has been comprehensively turned over on two recent starts but he acts on the Southwell surface, having won his maiden here previously, and is best in on official figures. Home holds no secrets. He acts around here but is yet to conclusively prove he gets any further than a mile. Silver Spruce hated the heavy going at Pontefract but had shaped well on debut at Windsor for Ed McMahon. Indecision looks to have regressed at a rate of knots. The remainder have been beaten by cricket score sized margins in the past. An Scaribh is taken to land a claimer that lacks much in the way of overall depth.
