In depth

Verdict

Thalys an impressive winner at Market Rasen last time out, looks set to get favourite backers off to a flyer, the gelding appeared to appreciate being stepped up in trip last time and with slightly further again to go here he will be hard to beat. Miss Janica was sent off favourite last time out in a bumper so is obviously thought capable of better but she will have to improve on all known form to score. Mostarsil looks the only other conceivable runner with a chance.
