In depth

Verdict

BRITISH EMBASSY (NAP) continues to improve and a 5lb rise for winning at Pontefract last time is negated by an apprentice’s allowance. He can go close again in this and is preferred to Toboggan's Fire. The latter has been thereabouts since winning at Redcar back in April while Dutch Gallery may finish closer dropping down in class for this. Mustaqqil also drops into a lower grade today after a modest fifth over track and trip and could get involved.
