In depth
Verdict
The second division of a thoroughly uninspiring contest and it is more in hope than confidence that Pancakehill is put forward as the selection. Dean Ivory's mare has at least shown a fairly consistent level of form in handicap company on this track of late and this represents a drop in grade so she should give backers a run for their money. Mr Bountiful overcame trouble in running to account for Noble Locks in a modest handicap at Wolverhampton last time and can confirm the placings on identical terms but Speedfit Free faces a stiffer task here after picking up a seller last time.
