In depth
Verdict
Hot Love’s recent second at Redcar came in a seller and Chief's Will ran a shocker when odds-on at Carlisle having finished second at Redcar on debut when On The Hook was well beaten. LIGHTENING GESTURE was also well beaten in that Carlisle race but there is a good chance that the extra here will suit and he looks the pick of Karl Burke’s trio. Whitcliffe will be no world-beater on pedigree but Mark Johnston will likely have him ready while The Grey Lass is also worth a market check.
