In depth

Verdict

A wide open affair where the draw will have a big effect on the result with those drawn low to middle sure to have a big advantage. Pension Fund is absolutely thrown in on his best for but he has become disappointing of late and he was even disappointing in blinkers last time out. Deeper In Debt should go well as he is in the form of his life but he is creeping up the weights and a draw of 15 does not help him. Ascari looks the one to be on he ran well when just touched off at Yarmouth last time out he is well drawn will like the ground and he has a promising apprentice on board. Blushing Prince won a seller on the AW last time out in good style but this looks more competitive and his best form is on that surface. Perchancer is another to consider he is well in on his best form and will have the race run to suit. Silvertown could also be worth a look in the market as long as the ground stays on the fast side.
