In depth

Verdict

The ground will be to the liking of TWENTY TIMES and, as a previous C&D winner, her proven ability to handle this testing track is a persuasive factor. Pondering should also handle the ground and can go close under just a 4lb higher mark after winning last time out, while Fools And Kings is open to plenty of improvement and is also feared.
