        In depth

        Verdict

        This looks tight on paper but we will shortlist three, these being Loaded Gun, Wind Chime and Warlingham, with the vote going to Loaded Gun. The selection won over course an distance from a pound lower rating five days ago and, coming into this race in good heart, has to be considered, although his wide draw might not be totally ideal. Wind Chime put in a good effort over slightly further at Lingfield last time, and a repeat of that gives him claims, while Warlingham is a pound better off for the neck he finished behind the selection when they met over course and distance last time, so he holds an obvious chance too. These look to us to be the major players, with, as we say, the vote going to Loaded Gun.
