In depth
Verdict
In The Frame has been in fair form of late and he ran well when second behind Voice Mail at Lingfield and despite top weight he will be very hard to beat. Soltaat has ran well in similar races of late but he appeared to hang fire last time out and he may be one to have reservations about. Night Cap has also been in fair form of late and was a good third last time out but he looked to Be in the handicappers grip. Dot Com Dot is well bred but has shown only a modicum of ability but she could be well in on this her handicap debut. Tych landed a gamble in good style last time out and if he can reproduce that effort he should go close despite rising up the weights.
