In depth
Verdict
Panther Patrol has been cleverly placed to complete a four-timer but he only scraped home by a nose on his latest start at Lingfield and has gone up a further 4lb since. He also likes to hear his hooves rattle and there will be some give in the ground here. Sarangoo and Eastern Dragon would have a chance on their best form but Jontleman often flatters to deceive while the maiden Debit has a bit to find on the form book. Pensax Lad won at Leicester last month but a 6lb rise may have scuppered his chance of a follow up, though he did finish well ahead of Shingle that day. SACHA PARK didn't handle the drop back to 5f at Brighton 11 days ago but this is a more suitable test and he doesn't look badly treated on his best form.
