In depth

Verdict

Sir Mark Prescott can land a quick double here with FINAL LIBERATION. The son of Sinndar bids for a hat-trick off an 8lb higher mark, but scored by four lengths last time and hasn't stopped improving. Red Courtier had Rosewood Lad well behind when second at Kempton recently and looks the biggest danger ahead of Gremlin, who was third in lesser company over C&D earlier this month. Wine 'N Dine hasn't been seen at the track since 2009 and may struggle to get involved.
