In depth
Verdict
Bumper winner Harbour Point will be suited by this step up in trip and should run well without quite being good enough to win, while Throwaline looked a sure fire future winner when chasing home the useful No Collusion at Fontwell on his debut over timber. While he will win races in the future, he may have to play second fiddle to the filly Navale, who receives a handy 14lbs off the Hobbs runner. Navale lost nothing in defeat when beaten by subsequent winner Do L'Enfant D'Eau here last month, where she shaped as though a step up in trip should bring about some improvement.
