In depth

Verdict

The vast majority arrive out of form but MISS TYNTE posted a better effort at Wetherby last time. She couldn’t prevent Destrier form landing a double but the third-placed horse has subsequently won and David Pipe’s mare gets the nod on that form. Ruby Russet was pulled-up on her reappearance but went close a Wincanton last year and may prove best of Colin Tizzard’s three runners while Westerbee and Kristal Hart have slipped down the weights.
