In depth
Verdict
Rhosneigr posted a much better effort when second of only four runners at Leicester last time but COAL STOCK is preferred. The latter went close to returning a shock 40/1 winner when beaten a head by stablemate Liva over track and trip last week and David Evans’ colt is taken to go one better. Move Over has yet to match an earlier debut fourth at York but Shrewd Approach may well improve and Mail Order is a half-sister to numerous winners and a newcomer to note.
