In depth

Verdict

Hellenista won a lower grade contest at Ripon last month but Haveyoumissedme's win at Newcastle looks stronger form. LIBERATED LAD (NAP) took advantage of a slide down the weights to score at Windsor recently and, given Ian Williams’ charge remains on a winning mark despite a 5lb rise, he can go in again. Berry Edge won over a shorter trip in July but Doncaster winner Prison Break makes more appeal back at this level having struggled at Ascot last time
