In depth
Verdict
Fred's In The Know has taken well to fences and should make amends for his early mishap at Carlisle last week. He is not likely to be sent off at a bank-busting price but is one to consider including in any banker doubles. Enzo Du Baune is going the right way and is the obvious one for the forecast selection. However, Didifon would not have too much to find to run into the frame.
