In depth
Verdict
Lady Of York scored over track and trip early last year but hasn’t raced since August and has switched yards since. APEX PREDATOR finally took advantage of a tumble down the weights when successful over today’s trip at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago. Raised only 2lb, he may prove worth sticking with in a weak contest. Both Arlecchino's Arc and Demophon finished closer last time while Murhib was placed over 1m2f at Chelmsford and Mistress Nellie was beaten less than a length on her penultimate start.
