In depth

Verdict

Sliding Doors is an interesting newcomer here with the champion jockey hanging around to take the ride. The Linksman won at Sedgefield last month but the runner-up has been beaten twice since and he has a penalty to carry. Hello Fellas was only beaten a neck at Ayr and could cap a good day for followers of Nicky Richards’ yard but the mare HERMANUS appears to have similar claims on the form book having run well under a penalty at Carlisle after winning at Ayr - she is just preferred. Another Stowaway looks best of the rest.
