In depth
Verdict
Suitcase 'n' Taxi and Chookie Dunedin have won on the all-weather this year but look vulnerable in this company. Right Action was a fair third at Haydock after a lay-off, with Roundhay Park and Production just behind, and stablemate Zap ran with promise at Doncaster. Tangled won at Beverley 11 days ago but really needs a mile and steps up a grade. PROUD ARCHI goes well fresh and reappears on a 3lb lower mark than when second at York around this time last year. Michael Dods’ stable has hit the crossbar a few times lately but their luck could change here.
