In depth
Verdict
Thounder didn’t help his cause with a mistake at the last over track and trip last time and was beaten only a length behind DYLIEV. But the latter has got her act together lately having also won at Warwick in January and a 3lb rise may not be enough to prevent her making another bold bid. Endless Credit has plenty to find with the selection but Tierra Verde ran well again at Kempton having scored at Taunton earlier and Rahmah finished a lot closer on good ground at Leicester on his latest start. Novice winner Lord Of The Rock makes his handicap debut and may prove best of the rest.
