In depth

Verdict

McGillycuddy Reeks will appreciate a return to this trip, having found 10-furlongs round Nottingham too sharp, while Tandava may lack experience for a race as competitive as this. Pretrail ran a sound race last time, when equipped with a first time visor, but has yet to prove he stays this far. Mana D'Argent, who is dropping in the handicap, showed enough last time to suggest he is not far off a winning mark, while bumper winner Wintertide, is interesting now he tackles handicapper' for the first time. Solo Flight, impressed when winning at Newmarket, but he does need things to go his way and is usually worth opposing. Unexposed over this trip, Royal Cavalier could be the one. He has only had the one run over this trip on turf, and that was when winning the valuable November Handicap last backend. He confirmed his well being, when a solid runner-up behind Stretton, over what could have been an inadequate test at Chester.
