In depth

Verdict

Matewan was only a length-and-a-half behind the more-experienced Art Man on hurdling debut at Uttoxeter and the four-times Flat winner will know more today. But GALSWORTHY’s third behind Chasamax here last month looks stronger form and he has also won on the level. Shining Blood only ran once in bumpers but Bigbadmattie looked a spent force when falling at the last here last month.
