In depth

Verdict

Seven of these are previous course and distance winners and Fieldsman was beaten under a length at Wolverhampton 11 days ago. AMATHUS (NAP) missed the break so did well to finish third here three weeks ago. He holds King Of War on that run having been dropped a pound since. Shalfa will strip fitter for a pipe-opener at Kempton but Major Gatsby hasn’t run since January. River Wharfe may be best of the rest ahead of Mount Mogan.
