In depth

Verdict

PAPER FACES was only beaten a short-head over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last time and should be going one better here, though Lost The Moon was close up in a blanket finish that day and was finishing strongly so can’t be ignored. Ruby Wednesday steps up again in trip after her fourth at Kempton and looks fully exposed and Le Tissier has also had plenty of chances. Istimraar has been going backwards over hurdles and makes limited appeal back on the Flat.
