In depth

Verdict

Most of these are out of sorts but LUCIFUGOUS is an exception having won over 7f at Wolverhampton recently. She should go close again in such a weak handicap. Four Fifty Three was in better form earlier in the year when placed over 1m2f while Beloved Knight went close at Kempton back in April. Several have slid down the weights due to their recent poor form with the likes of Baileys Excel, Jungle Queen, Greeneyedafghan and Rainbow Jazz all looking to bounce back.
