In depth

Verdict

Flat winner Edinburgh Castle was never far away when third on his hurdling debut at Bangor and improvement is likely. OLYMPIC CONQUEROR has twice run well in defeat since getting off the mark at Fakenham and is receiving weight from the four-year-old Ambassador, who appears to have a very similar level of form. The other pair have plenty to find.
