In depth

Verdict

LYNCHPIN gets a change of headgear after finishing a close-up fourth over 1m2f at Yarmouth and that’s the best recent form on offer in a woeful affair. Herm’s earlier success came in Guernsey but Ember's Glow has won here before and Carvelas also has past form, though has struggled recently. Pot Luck has tumbled down the weights this year and takes a further drop in class fitted with cheekpieces for the first time.
