In depth

Verdict

Roy's Legacy bids for hat-trick off a 4lb higher mark after victories at Kempton and over track and trip last time. He should make another bold bid but BOXING SHADOWS was having his first since July when going close over course and distance a week ago and Les Eyre's charge looks up to scoring off his current mark. Bubbly Bailey won here in September with subsequent Southwell scorer Excellent Aim not far behind in third and both are preferred to Tidal's Baby, whose losing run stretches back to 2013 now.
