        In depth

        Verdict

        SMILEY BAGEL looks worth sticking with until beaten. He defied a 6lb rise to land a hat-trick a shade cosily at Kempton last month and another bold bid is expected. Pour L'amour is getting closer to opening her account and was second over track and trip last time but King Oswald steps up in distance attempting to add to last year’s only success so far. Inflexiball ended last season with a couple of better efforts but is another looking for her first win.
