In depth
Verdict
Know No Limits is weighted to go close but that was also the case in a claimer at Catterick last time and he found a much lower rated horse too good. VAPE is another with leading claims on these terms and after a better effort in a handicap at Sandown, may prove the one to side with. The remainder have plenty to find including Woven Quality and it doesn’t bode well to see One Step Too Far make his racecourse debut at this level.
