In depth
Verdict
King's Slipper won by a neck here recently but is 4lb higher. INTREPIDLY (NAP) scored over track and trip back in February and finished second in a higher grade back here on his reappearance. He’s taken to go one better racing off the same mark. The Gill Brothers ran well at Sandown on his comeback, though that was in June, while Artistic Rifles, an import from Italy, made a winning start for James Bethell at Redcar but is upped in class. Chelmsford runner-up Variyann is another facing a more difficult task and River Dawn remains 9lb higher than when scoring here in July.
