      In depth

      Verdict

      By an Australian sire out of a dam who won over 6f and 7f in South Africa, SIDI MANSOUR has a complex pedigree but should be good enough for a race like this. Cliffcake is a full brother to useful sprinter Tomily but was a shade disappointing on debut. However, he’ll know more today and so will Jimmy Sparks. Bonnyrigg has a nice pedigree and is also likely to win races, though possibly over further.
