In depth
Verdict
SHRUBLAND enjoyed a rapid upturn in fortunes for joining Dan Skelton prior to his last start. He looks capable of building on that success here from 7lb higher. Louloumills is back on a competitive mark, while Hey Bob also has claims of picking up some prize money. Just Chilly and Bohernagore would both be interesting if supported, while Prairie Impulse and Tell The Tale are others to consider.
