In depth
Verdict
Sendintank and Cold Turkey are two very likeable types and the latter is narrowly preferred with Gig Harbour the other included on the shortlist. The selection ran well for a long way behind Mamcazma at Wolverhampton last time but probably hit the front too soon in that race before being headed. He is dropped in trip here which will suit, as will the return to this track and he should take plenty of beating. Sendintank has rewarded his supporters on numerous occasions this season and he represents an obvious danger here. However, he was all-out to narrowly beat Dr Sharp when last seen out and the time may have come now to take him on. Gig Harbour goes well here and is entitled to plenty of respect, but he may just need the run on his return from a break. Mamcazma won well last time and is another with an obvious chance, but for the winner we return to Cold Turkey.
