In depth

Verdict

Water Thief's best run so far came over Beverley's stiff mile so this might be a bit sharp, though he does race prominently. Gea And Tea has his sights lowered and could figure while Enville was slowly away on debut at Epsom and is capable of better. THIRD TIME LUCKY can make it fourth-time lucky here after three solid runs over 6f. He had the worst of the draw when second at Thirsk last time. Swift Approval ran well on debut at York but was then beaten at odds-on at Ayr.
