In depth

Verdict

Traveller is usually thereabouts but has still only won a maiden race in 22 starts while Pike Corner Cross has yet to win over this far. Both False Id and Destinys Rock scored over track and trip in December and the former is back on a winning mark while Street Poet landed a double here at this time last year and a recent placed effort at Newcastle suggests he can figure in the finish. But Irish raider URSUS BELLE is less exposed and with improvement expected stepping up in distance on only her third start handicapping, she gets the vote to come out best in this.
