In depth
Verdict
A big field for this claimer but realistically there are only a handful in with a chance at the weights. Further Outlook looks the one to beat on the strength of his solid effort here a couple of weeks ago in handicap company when winning the race on the stands side but finishing out of the places. Whilst not the force of old he should still take some catching. Stable companion Al Muallim ended last term with a couple of wins in similar company and must be respected as must Elvington Boy who goes well here. It's hard to make much of a case for the remainder although Miss C wouldn't be without a chance on her very best form.
