In depth
Verdict
READY FREDDIE GO has raced twice over course and distance and won on both occasions. Ollie Pears’ charge scored in this grade last time and that looks stronger form than Runninwild’s victory over a longer trip at Carlisle. Country Carnival beat Tees Spirit by only a neck when successful at Doncaster earlier and Follow Your Heart won in heavy going at the same track in July. Khabib and Havagomecca also scored in July though both have returned beaten favourites subsequently.
