In depth
Verdict
As ever in these type of contests the market will be the best guide however there are some lines of form to work on here with a couple of previous winners in the field. Loopy Linda has shown she has ability but has a double penalty to lug around and she is held by Loi de Martiale on their Doncaster run. Newcomer Cook O Hawaick looks interesting and support in the market will suggest he is a fancied animal. Autumn Stroll, a raider from Ireland holds a few of these after winning well at this track last month and should confirm superiority.
