In depth
Verdict
Laterly doesn't take any prisoners but Steve Gollings' trail-blazer could be treading water up the home straight on what is a deceptively stiff track and may be easy pickings for GET IT ON. The latter stays further suggesting he'll be happier than most with a fast pace. Morocchius was well beaten in a seller last time but bumper winner Theredballoon was far from disgraced on his hurdling debut behind Dubai Crest at Huntingdon and can only improve while Ibn Hiyyan has hinted at ability over timber, though may have more chance when tackling handicaps.
