In depth
Verdict
Kraken Filly landed a handicap over track and trip last month but has to concede weight to the unexposed three-year-old BAILAR CONTIGO in this. The latter has been in the mix at Wolverhampton recently and can come out best in this lowly grade. Craggy Range also has scope for improvement over this longer trip but it’s difficult to make a case for any of the rest.
