In depth
Verdict
Not many of these arrive in good form and the two recent winners, Huntlaw and Fuwairt, step up in class off higher marks. Galvanize is 7lb higher than his earlier win at Haydock while Daily Bulletin was virtually pulled-up on his latest start at Sandown. HOME CUMMINS (NAP) was not beaten far in this grade at Ripon last time and an apprentice’s claim effectively allows her to race off the same mark as when scoring at York in July. The Fahey filly gets the nod with Alfred Hutchinson still looking high enough in the weights.
