In depth

Verdict

Proud Archi hasn’t been quite at his best lately and Obee Jo has also gone off the boil but Yoshimi still looks in good nick, though is probably held by YOUARENOTFORGIVEN on the form book. Hampered at the start, Tony Carroll’s charge failed to handle the rain-softened ground when favourite at Ffos Las nine days ago so that run is easily ignored. Trumble has done all of his winning at Chelmsford while Sir Winston carries a welter burden making his handicap debut after a lengthy lay-off, though his yard is still in excellent form.
