In depth
Verdict
Richidish faces a very stiff task on his chasing bow and Shakem Up'arry was engaged in the 12.50 Haydock yesterday. WAR LORD couldn’t match the finishing speed of Edwardstone at Sandown but stayed on up the hill and conditions today may play more to his strengths. Il Ridoto was pulled up in that race and may struggle to reverse the form while Faivoir has already had his limitations exposed on a couple of occasions over fences.
