In depth

Verdict

Hard to know where to start with this bunch. NICHOLAS POCOCK finished a close-up third the last time he encountered soft going so maybe he's the answer. The winless Avon Supreme has also been placed in testing ground and Cairanne has a couple of placed efforts on Polytrack to her credit this year. Crabbies Gold and Danceyourselfdizzy have slipped down the weights but deservedly so as they've both been out of sorts and Wolverhampton winner Pindar returns off a 3lb higher mark having been off the track since 2008.
