In depth

Verdict

Alareef has twice had Mutahaddith just behind in handicaps here recently and there's absolutely nothing between the pair at these weights. The former didn't enhance the form last time though wasn't at his best while Speedy Move was a big disappointment when last seen in November after looking progressive earlier. Ticket Holder is held by Alareef on latest running and Year Of Glory hasn't run for two years. LYTHAM ST ANNES, a winner at Epsom for David Simcock, looked ready to score soon for new connections when runner-up at Jebel Ali and though disappointing here next time he missed the break and is given another chance.
