In depth

Verdict

Gripper and Deerfoot have had plenty of chances. Cirque Royal was a useful performer on the Flat for Godolphin but hasn't run in almost two years. Kavanaghs Cross has finished second in maidens at Navan and Kilbeggan this year and has every chance of a first success having switched stables but TIGER ORCHID has proved to a be a decent sort in bumpers at Worcester and will have had plenty of schooling. Richard Newland's six-year-old can score over timber at the first time of asking. Do No Wrong has been getting closer and may prove the pick of the remainder ahead of points winner Dan's Cross.
