In depth

Verdict

WELL PLANTED floundered in the closing stages over 1m6f last time. But he’d earlier finished runner-up over course and distance and gets another chance in this less competitive contest racing off the same mark in first-time headgear. Hajey also placed here before having a spin over hurdles and Coup De Gold is another returning to the Flat, though has yet to win under this code. True Romance was returning from a lengthy absence when well beaten at Southwell but has something to prove now.
