In depth

Verdict

LADY RESET comes out best at the weights. Fit from hurdling, David Pipe’s mare may prove the one to side at this level back in this code. Koola Buala also has a shout on these terms as she drops down in class with blinkers applied while Cafe Espresso is preferred to Yukon over today’s trip after placing in a handicap at Kempton. Loch Ness Monster may prove best of the rest.
