In depth
Verdict
Casaruan is 10lb higher than when scoring here in November where he was completing a course double initiated in February. Fly The Nest won at Kempton then couldn't handle the slight step up in class at Lingfield while Word Of Honour was beaten in a seller last time. CLEGANE has moved to Stuart Williams' in-form yard an, though returning from a long break and still a maiden, was racing in much stronger company during the summer and can get off the mark. Al Ozzdi is on a long losing run but hasn't been beaten far in recent runs.
