In depth

Verdict

Challet was a 20/1 chance at Redcar but belied his odds with a very good run behind Bond's Boy and normal progress should see him go close. HARTSWOOD could have done with a better draw but he was unlucky in-running when just failing to catch Duesenberg over 6f at Haydock and the longer trip should enable him to go one better. Top Flight Cool caught the eye over the track and trip last weekend, staying on then meeting interference. He has the scope to do better and should get into contention.
