In depth
Verdict
LOCHNAVER (NAP) is very well in at the weights after gaining her third course victory in an apprentices‘ race last week and should be very difficult to beat. Ajyad came with a late run to snatch the spoils over 1m2f at Bath so stepping up in trip should not be a problem. Newcastle winner Tiamat did not enjoy the soft ground at Beverley and can do better while Dreams Adozen did not stay 1m4f at Leicester. Iconique is 1-20 and been looking a few pounds high.
