In depth

Verdict

For Shia And Lula landed a seller at Brighton back in August but has to compete off a 10lb higher mark back on the all-weather. Hellbender looks to have hit a brick wall off his current mark and Daring Dragon's progress has come to halt judged on a disappointing effort at Lingfield last time. EWELL PLACE was allowed to come home in his own time once beaten at Lingfield last week but gets another chance here with a 7lb claimer taking over the reins, though Khajaaly finished runner-up over track and trip off a higher mark last year and makes more appeal than Izzy Boy, well beaten at Southwell recently when attempting to land a hat-trick.
