In depth
Verdict
Big Wing hasn't won in 16 starts and dropped back to 1m1f when just beaten at Wolverhampton earlier this month. He'd early been well beaten behind Pablo Prince at Lingfield though the latter has run moderately in two subsequent visits here. Jacks Profit has been consistent enough since scoring at Lingfield in March and is only 2lb higher while Land Of Eagles is on an 8lb lower mark than when scoring at Chepstow in the summer. SHIP TO SHORE (NAP) has more scope than most of these and didn't get the best of runs at Southwell last time so gets a chance to put matters right.
