In depth

Verdict

Young At Heart finished third when sent off favourite at Fakenham though wasn’t beaten far while CALL THE DANCE was also a beaten favourite at Ludlow when fourth on her debut. But she finished behind a subsequent winner and Nicky Henderson’s mare gets a speculative vote in an open bumper. Malago Rose and Bethpage are other likely improvers but Lucky Rose failed to show any progress last time while Sunday Soldier never figured in a couple of starts for Gordon Elliott and has switched yards.
