In depth

Verdict

ARTY CAMPBELL (NAP) is the interesting runner in this as he's been much improved in staying handicaps on the Flat this summer, finishing fourth at Goodwood on his latest start. He's lightly-raced over timber and could be thrown in here. Modeligo has a good strike rate and but has gone up 27lb in the handicap since April. Sleeping City finally got off the mark at Uttoxeter but that looked a weak race and he has more on his plate here while Tricky has proved disappointing. Only Gorgeous ran well over further here two runs ago but this drop in distance may not be ideal.
