In depth
Verdict
Dreamboat Annie beat Autumn Lodge to win a maiden over track and trip last time but the latter has been beaten in a handicap since. Aquadabra was placed for the fifth time in six outings when runner-up here recently but JUNE DOG (NAP) is preferred. He wasn’t beaten that far when attempting to make all over 6f at Haydock on his handicap debut and this drop back to the minimum trip should suit Richard Hannon’s colt. Diamond Pursuit has her sights lowered and may prove best of the rest.
