In depth
Verdict
Only Back To Bracka and Most Honourable of these have had a recent run and the former was disappointing when favourite on his UK debut here a couple of weeks ago. Emral Silk is unexposed while Mohawk Ridge did well last season. Just Cameron and Tikkandemickey are others entitled to respect, though the latter was beaten 10 lengths off level weights behind Frankie's Promise at Hexham in April. GRANARUID is three from three here over longer trips and was only beaten half-a-length over 2m at Hexham in May. Just a pound higher, he has every chance of enhancing his impressive track record.
