        In depth

        Verdict

        Leicester winner Justin Mac has to give weight away all round in the last race on the card. Although below par at Ludlow last time, the former Jimmy Fitzgerald inmate may not have appreciated the longer trip there and should be suited by the return to two miles. Sacrifice won with plenty in hand at Hereford on his most recent start and at the age of seven may not have stopped improving, a comment which also applies to Hobbycyr. Saltis showed his best form so far when successful at Hereford last month and should again be thereabouts.
