In depth
Verdict
Cash Again won over hurdles at Sedgefield in December and over fences here earlier in the month. He’s clearly back in form but steps up a grade for this. SHERIFF GARRETT followed up a victory at Catterick with a good second at Newcastle and Tim Easterby’s stable is finding some form. Stainsby Girl’s latest fourth at Newcastle came in a much better race but she has only raced over this trip once before and Bavington Bob might be a bigger danger after getting off the mark at Carlisle.
