In depth
Verdict
Westgate Run is from a bang in form yard and has been running well lately but does look hard to win with. Luxor won a fair race at Chester two weeks ago but has since had his limitations exposed at Haydock, where Fight The Feeling finished in front of him and can confirm the form here. Northside Lodge likes to hear his hooves rattle, he shaped well at Epsom last time and the form reads well in a race like this so he looks the one to beat.
