In depth
Verdict
Night Wolf, Tregarron and Kallista's Pride are our three against the field here and we will take a chance with the first named. Jamie Poulton's five-year-old displayed a decent level of form on the turf, culminating in a game success at Brighton in September. He goes well fresh and has shown a good liking for this course in the past. Tregarron is another solid performer on the turf from distances ranging from five furlongs to a mile. Today's trip looks ideal and a big run is expected from Richard Hannon's gelding. Kallista's Pride is game and consistent at this level and can never be ruled out of calculations, another big run can be expected. Bollin Billy is another that may run well, but in a wide open affair Night Wolf may just have the edge.
