In depth
Verdict
The market may prove the best guide concerning Kevin Morgan's Direction, a debut winner at Market Rasen in March, but who raced far too keenly on her Bangor reappearance. Another Sparkle should improve on her racecourse bow here behind Masimo at the last meeting, while Starcross Sadie is from a stable who know hoe to get them ready first time. So too though does Martin Pipe who unleashes Carroll's Dove, a daughter of the Arc winner Carroll's House. She would not have to be a world beater to pop in at the first time of asking and although bets should be kept to a minimum, Tony McCoy's mount is the TEAMtalk selection.
