In depth

Verdict

In a very tricky handicap Ellina is given a tentative vote, Garden Society, Monte Cristo and Skye's Folly could provide most danger. The selection has shown a real liking for this track, with three victories this season, including an impressive success over this trip. The handicapper has taken note but she still looks on a reasonable mark and should be capable of going close today. Garden society bounced back to winning ways at Lingfield last time and should go well despite his massive burden. Monte Cristo also hit winning form last time and is open to plenty of improvement. Meanwhile Skye's Folly was an impressive winner at Pontefract last month and he also has some good form at the track as well, he could be the main threat to the selection. Of the others Beauchamp Trump can also be considered for each-way purposes, but our idea of the winner is Ellina.
