In depth

Verdict

Conditions are an unknown but KIRUNA PEAK won twice on the Flat and made a perfectly acceptable start to her hurdling career when leading until the last at Fontwell and finishing ahead of Tidal Watch. She must have every chance of going one better here if she settles a little better though Gumball, third on heavy ground at Dieppe in the spring and now with Philip Hobbs, must be a big danger. He’s A Toff was placed three times up to a mile on the Flat but stamina may be an issue.
