    In depth

    Verdict

    Intercessor has been in good form here having gone close to following up an earlier course and distance success when beaten less than a length last time. He had the measure of Canagat on both those occasions while Otago has been in the mix over 7f at the track recently though has done all his winning so far over shorter trips. Maysong won an amateurs' race at Sandown and is 8lb higher while BE LUCKY MY SON was upped in class at Newmarket when bidding for a hat-trick. But the latter can race off the same mark as when scoring at Bath with Laura Pearson’s allowance taken into account and can return to winning ways back at this lower level.
