In depth
Verdict
A low grade lottery with Clement further complicating matters given he has every chance in this but was due to run at Lingfield yesterday. Seaquinn finished runner-up over track and trip last time when ahead of Casey Banter, Ertidaad and Plucky Dip and has the beating of Dukes Meadow on collateral form while Red Cossack was second in a similar contest at Kempton recently and is preferred to Cash N Carrie. But IMPERIAL ACT is getting closer as she slides further down the weights and gets a token vote to come good in this with Oisin Murphy taking over the reins.
