    In depth

    Verdict

    National League won a tougher handicap at Hamilton last time but has had no luck with the draw and stablemate Kidda makes his handicap debut along with novice winners Jovial and RIVER NYMPH. The former won at Newcastle in September but the latter landed a tougher contest at Wolverhampton in November and Clive Cox’ colt may prove the one to side with. Caspian Queen drops down in class on her return having beaten Angel Grey when scoring at Goodwood while Little Brown Trout is preferred to Dark Regard and Pop Dancer on his second over track and trip in January.
