In depth
Verdict
Bodfari Signet has to put a couple of disappointing behind him here but cannot be ruled out on the pick of his form. He gets the trip well enough and the ground should not be a problem for him. It¿s All A Chance should also act on the going and will be a tough nut to crack on the pick of his form. He fared well enough on his last outing to get within two lengths of a well-handicapped rival at Catterick and should give a good account of himself. Harry Hooley and Golden Thunderbolt could be the best of the rest.
