In depth
Verdict
The majority of these would struggle to land a seller so this is not a race for maximum stakes. PATSIO is the senior runner but beat a subsequent winner at Ffos Las two runs ago before failing to last home over 2m4f on a return visit when conceding the winner 23lb. Baby Ted has only had one run in a handicap so far and represents a powerful yard while Aidan Coleman keeps faith with the four-year-old Dariya. Infiniti is tried in blinkers and has place claims again along with Ormskirk.
