In depth
Verdict
Softer going won’t inconvenience Yarmouth winner PURGATORY and the Dark Angel gelding can defy a 4lb rise ahead of Pontefract third Charlie's Boy. Jem Scuttle has only won at Wolverhampton so far and was a beaten favourite on his last visit there but cheekpieces could help the disappointing Gunnison to get back on track. Salisbury third Rudy Lewis definitely has scope after just two runs on Turf and Beautiful Gesture has placed twice since third over track and trip on his reappearance.
