In depth
Verdict
OVERAWED need only reproduce his latest second at Hereford to go one better in this, though there is a slight doubt about his stamina and he’s likely to be a short price. Benny's Secret, Lady Master and Another Day Done are likely to be best placed to take advantage should the selection come up short, though Dulce Panem may well have won here in February had he not been brought down and he’s 2lb lower.
