In depth
Verdict
A moderate contest that will not live too long in the memory, but Sam Adams is holding his form well at present and he can gain compensation for a near miss at Wincanton a fortnight ago. Wellie and Hidden Pearl will not make it easy for him though and are live dangers. However, Sam Adams latest form is working out very well in the context of this race and he can gain the upper hand near the finish here if he runs up to his recent level. The first-time visored Manoloto is one to monitor in the betting.
