In depth
Verdict
A tough finale for punters to sort out, it might be worth siding NOW VOYAGER . She looked certain to win a point-to-point at the first time of asking in May, before come to grief late in the piece. That was still an encouraging effort and she's been given time to get over it now, so could be well up to running a big race here. Tangoed (third) and Tequila Secret (fourth) showed some promise at Southwell on their rules bows and can come forward while the booking of Johnson to steer Irish import Thelunarschooner is a notable one. Dontdillydally , another newcomer, is also worth some attention.
