In depth
Verdict
It's two years since Border Victor scored over the trip at Wetherby and his best subsequent runs have been on ground with plenty of give. SINCERELY RESDEV will enjoy the conditions and though he hasn't proved he stays this far he was staying on over 2m3f at Catterick and that could be good enough. The veteran Wind Of Hope is another who appears best on testing ground while Something Brewing is very moderate but has managed to win six races while in a poor contest Donna's Diva wouldn't need to improve much on her handicap debut to take a hand.
