In depth
Verdict
Course and distance winner False Id beat Nutopia and Sir Lancelott on that occasion but failed to figure in a higher grade last time and is still carries a 6lb penalty for his earlier success. MAKOFITWHATYOUWILL has yet to win but went close to doing so when beaten less than a length over track and trip last time. Dropping own in class today, Ruth Carr’s charge can finally get his head in front. Amherst Rock won over a mile here last month but struggled over a longer trip a fortnight ago while Thecornishbarron returned a beaten favourite over a mile at the track last time and could go well with an apprentice’s allowance helping his cause in this.
