In depth

Verdict

Greengage took advantage of a lower mark on Turf when scoring at Redcar and going in again at this track last month. But she’s 6lb higher today and THREE CASTLES is preferred. The latter posted a better effort over a shorter distance at Musselburgh last week but stays this far having gone close off a similar mark over track and trip last summer. Ingleby Hollow is enduring a long losing run both on the Flat and over hurdles while Lord Torranaga returned a losing favourite last time having won at Wolverhampton before that and Red Missile is even harder to recommend.
