      In depth

      Verdict

      Mogwai went close at Doncaster recently while Zaakara and Measured Moments have both been in the mix lately and are others to consider. But HAKUNA BABE (NAP) finished third in a tougher contest than this at Sandown on her handicap bow and may prove good enough at this level. Redcar runner-up Strictly Dreaming is upped in trip while Scotch Mist, Paradise Row and Miss Lightfandango all make their handicap debuts with the potential for improvement.
