In depth
Verdict
Catterick winner Blackheath, did not have to be at his best to take that event and while it proves his well being, he has been done no favours by the draw. Course winners Alpen Wolf and Doctor Dennis, seem below their best at present, while Jazzy Millennium, a dual-course winner is ideally drawn, but will have to put in a personal best to win this. A chance is taken with Sunley Scent, who can take advantage of being drawn next to the rail.
