In depth

Verdict

Israfel won a handicap over track and trip last time and should go well again despite a 4lb higher mark. But Rupert Boy takes on much tougher opposition after landing a maiden race at Southwell and stablemate ALBERT BOY is preferred. The latter went close in a higher grade contest here last week it could be his turn today. Sunbaked is not the most consistent but has gone close on a couple of occasions of late and together with Tombe Girl, may prove best of the remainder.
