In depth
Verdict
IT’LL DO RIGHTLY was very impressive when making a belated debut under Rules at Catterick. Caroline McCaldin makes another raid across the Irish Sea with her 10-year-old, who can double his tally. Quick Pick was awarded a rating of 122 after winning one of these qualifiers over track and trip last month while Henry's Joy should improve for his fourth at Bangor. It’s hard to make a case for any of the others.
