        In depth

        Verdict

        Magic Glade, Rydal and Whitbarrow are three against the field in this competitive claimer and the vote is given to Rydal. The selection was a fair second behind Mafaheem last time out. That form looks solid and although the drop in trip is a slight concern this is such a poor race he may get away with it. Magic Glade rates the main danger on his latest third behind Continent. This looks easier. However he is prone to breaking blood vessels and at likely odds he is taken on. Whitbarrow is thrown in on his best form but he has shown little of late so cannot be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Came Back looks weighted up to his best while Millfields Dreams best form is over a longer trip and with this in mind for the winner we return to Rydal.
