In depth
Verdict
DYSANIA finished 15 lengths ahead of Wind Tor when third at Ffos Las two runs ago. The former probably ran up to that mark when fourth at Chepstow next time and the booking of Brian Hughes suggests that connections of the Welsh raider mean business today. Eveque could figure if fully wound-up but Moonacura, placed three times over hurdles, has more scope making his chasing debut. Cudgel and Gipsy Lee Rose look best of the rest.
