In depth

Verdict

Muwalla was raised 5lb after finishing second here earlier in the month but still filled the same position next time at Newcastle so goes on the short-list. Trust Thomas has plummeted down the weights but has yet to show much improvement for the drop. CIVIL UNREST is high enough in the handicap but loves it here and should be thereabouts if the ground doesn’t deteriorate further. Thankyou Very Much and Endeavor are others at home around here while Prince Khurram has been in good form over hurdles and has won over fences so further complicates a tricky puzzle.
