In depth
Verdict
CRUSHED did himself no favours when refusing to settle at York on his debut and duly faded in the closing stages of the mile trip. He should know more here and today’s 7f looks more in his favour. Stevie Brown disappointed last time having finished runner-up at Thirsk earlier while Royal Icon, Sliceoflife and Dirty Randy will need further improvement if they are to figure. Lady Kitty is a half-sister to winning sprinters including Stewards’ Cup winner Rex Imperator so is a newcomer to note.
