In depth

Verdict

Several ran below par last time and Beauzon has returned a losing favourite the last twice now. Politics drops back down in trip after a poor effort over 7f last time while EL HOMBRE never figured in an amateurs' race at Chelmsford last week. But the latter was beaten only a head when last over track and trip and Billy Loughnane was on board when he won at Chelmsford back in January. Ikkari drops down to 6f for the first time and makes her handicap debut.
