        In depth

        Verdict

        Indalo comes into this handicap in better form than most with wins at Leicester, Hereford and Haydock among recent starts. Although beaten into third at Aintree last time this looks a weaker event so the seven-year-old should again be in the shake-up. The Ian Williams-trained Majestic lost little in defeat behind Ilnamar in the Coral Eurobet Cup at the Festival meeting last month and has been given a break since. He could go close again, while Martin Pipe's Imperial de Thaix comes here fresher than most having fallen at the first on his only start this term. Best of the others may be Cupboard Lover who has ground conditions to suit and is surely better than his run here last month.
