In depth
Verdict
Frankie's River improved for the step up in trip last time and is expected to do better on this stiffer track. He is a fine, rangy individual and will do better when he goes chasing. Jineful, from the powerful Henderson yard has yet to catch the eye over hurdles and is obviously better than he has shown so far, while Angel Delight is also open to plenty of improvement but preference is for hurdling debutante Yorkshire. A more than useful performer on the level, he is taken to make a winning debut.
