In depth

Verdict

A low grade handicap and none of these inspire much confidence. NATURES LAW scored over track and trip off a 6lb higher mark last season and she gets a speculative vote to bounce back in this. Locky Taylor attempts this longer trip for the first time having gone close at Hamilton and Gambino also made the frame over 6f last time. Toboggan Star has won a poor maiden at Southwell and Clumber Place went within a head of victory at Musselburgh back in May. Surround Sound looks best of the rest.
