In depth

Verdict

Kyle of Bute is the only course and distance winner in the line-up and he's 7lb lower due to a sequence of moderate efforts. Chik's Dream is still a maiden after 17 starts and was beaten in an even worse race than this last time. APACHE GLORY began last season racing off a mark of 80 and is 21lb lower here. He's stayed on quite well on his last couple of starts and it's time he was winning again. Spirit Of Gondree looks the main threat as he won here in January and is only 4lb higher despite running reasonably well subsequently.
