In depth
Verdict
Not an enormous amount of strength in depth here and there must be a question mark over this trip being far enough for Ahead Of The Curve . Thorpe is undoubtedly still well weighted on his old form and could well compete a hat-trick but SOLWAY DANDY is a good performer around here and not many meetings go by without Lisa Harrison having one of hers go close and he looks to offer some value here.
