        In depth

        Verdict

        A chance is taken here on Ishetoo, who is narrowly preferred to the likes of First Order and Orpenindeed. The selection is a course and distance winner and he won first time out last season, so his lack of a recent run will not be a problem. He also has his optimum ground conditions today so he looks to hold rock solid claims. Orpenindeed was only narrowly beaten at Yarmouth last time out and he certainly appears to be on an upward curve. However, this drop in trip is not sure to suit and for that reason he look worth opposing here. First Order faded over 6f at Ripon last time but that was no surprise as he is much better over the minimum trip. Bo McGinty disappointed last time but he had previously been in decent form and he is another with claims. Ishetoo has plenty going for him though and he gets the pick.
