    In depth

    Verdict

    Tigray has won here three times, though the latest was a seller, but Soros has run poorly in novice company. Carausius has won over 1m4f here and didn't perform badly over that trip in a better race at Doncaster last month. Call My Bluff completed a hat-trick last summer on ground with plenty of give and Polytrack. He looked a few pounds high on his final start in November but is an obvious contender if ready after his break. Eagle's Foot also arrives after an absence having completed a double over this trip on Polytrack in the autumn. His stable is in outstanding form and a hat-trick looks a distinct possibility but RAYNA'S WORLD is a decent hurdler and, though she hasn't quite hit the heights since finishing third in last year's Dawn Run at the Cheltenham Festival, she's competed at a high level and has a fitness advantage.
