      In depth

      Verdict

      Mr Cool Cash won in this grade at Beverley a week ago but Foie Gras landed a lower grade handicap at Chelmsford and will find this tougher. Depth Charge was runner-up in an amateur’s race at York but has only a won a claimer in 17 starts while Grey Destiny was second over a mile here last month. Misu Pete landed a double at Wolverhampton back in March and has claims on that form but CABAL gets the vote as he was a rejuvenated character last year when winning four times and is now back on the same mark as when landing the last of those wins at Redcar in October.
