In depth

Verdict

Arctic Flow shoulders a 7lb penalty for her win at Plumpton nine days ago and seems to reserve her best for that track. Hurricane Electric was pulled up at Fakenham on his latest start but should strip fitter for the outing while Galant Star is lightly raced and probably capable of stepping up on what she's achieved so far. Septos left previous form behind when runner-up at Hereford last month but I CAN RUN CAN YOU should be capable of conceding all round. Jonjo O'Neill's five-year-old was only beaten a length by Be My Light in a better race that this at Huntingdon last time and can defy a 7lb higher mark.
