In depth

Verdict

Plenty with claims in this. Injun Sands went close on the Turf last year and has won both outings so far this season on the all-weather. Chadic also arrives in fine form but is upped a further 6lb for his recent win at Chester while Braes Of Lochalsh had Ripon winner Lady Clitico back in fourth when scoring over track and trip three weeks ago. Northside Prince is another to consider on his latest third at Hamilton but SCRAPPER SMITH was not far behind the latter on only his second start since 2013 and Alistair Whillans' charge is fancied reverse running and come out best in this.
