In depth

Verdict

Our Ivor has yet to win away from Southwell which is why he can race off an 8lb lower mark back on the Turf while all of Mujaadel's eight victories to date have been over 7f. Cono Zur was below par last time but is fairly handicapped if back to his best while much better is expected from Dance For Georgie freshened up by his recent comeback at Newcastle. Just The Tonic could make the frame but INGLEBY ANGEL is taken to defy a penalty for last week's cosy win at Redcar.
