In depth
Verdict
She's Got Bottle has struggled from her raised mark after completing a Beverley double last summer. Hostelry has won once in 31 starts but came close to doubling her tally at Southwell and is on the same mark. AGONYCLITE is on the upgrade judging by his two recent runs. He went up 7lb for a convincing success at Newcastle and was only headed close home over this track and trip next time so another pound rise looks manageable. Galton wasn't far behind the selection at Newcastle and has run well subsequently so shouldn't be far away nor should Urban Road, a close third that day and a subsequent winner at Southwell.
