In depth

Verdict

Captain Ryan was ending a long losing run with last week’s victory here but makes less appeal carrying 6lb extra. ALASKAN BAY also scored over track and trip recently when beating Red Stripes with Beaming, Storm Trooper, Whispering Soul and Shesthedream all further behind. There looks more to come from Rae Guest’s filly and she’s taken to go in again. Zipedeedodah slips further down the weights having last won in 2017 and may prove best of the rest on his second outing after wind surgery.
