        made all, quickened over 1f out, ran on, readily

        In depth

        Verdict

        All That And More is the pick on last season's form, and can account for Counsel's Opinion, Ofaraby and Impeller to name but a few. All That And More was profitable to follow as a three-year-old, landing three of his first four starts, including here in July. He was beaten in soft ground at Newmarket on his final outing in October and was put away for the winter. Barry Hills has his team in great form at present, and judged on recent work, the son of Unfuwain can return with a bang off his light weight. Counsel's Opinion finished third in this event last year, and was not beaten far in the Winter Derby, so looks set to run a big race. Ofaraby was sixth in this two years ago and held his form well last season, so despite the lack of an outing, he too can make his presence felt. Impeller goes well here, in fact his last two victories have been on this track, but he was behind Counsel's Opinion at Lingfield and has it to do, while Profit's Reality gets a 5lb penalty for turning over Blue Monday at Ripon. That may have been a fluke result though, and we much prefer the claims of All That And More.
