In depth

Verdict

Frontline Phantom has the form over shorter trips to get involved and Record Breaker posted a better effort at Lingfield last time. Ajdaad's poor strike rate is off putting, but Croix Rouge went close at Sandown on his penultimate start and could figure. STAGS LEAP has had a recent spin over hurdles, but his second in a handicap at Hamilton last month is good enough form to land this and Alistair Whillans' charge gets the vote dropped in class.
