In depth

Verdict

A riddle of a bumper race as conditions stipulate that runners must not have previously appeared in any sort of contest under Rules. Obviously the market should help to sort them out but MOUNTYFIRTH is a hopeful stab in the dark as he's bred for the job by Flemensfirth out of a King's Theatre mare and Lizzie Kelly's 7lb claim could prove valuable. Common Practice is clearly of interest in the McManus silks with the excellent Noel Fehily booked whilst Golden Feet is another to appeal on pedigree being by Dubawi out of a Nashwan mare.
