In depth
Verdict
The market will be the best guide for this newcomers bumper so GRANGECLARE NORTH is only a tentative selection even though she is a full sister to the useful Grangeclare West and a half-sister to two other winners. The Cox Express is bred for the Flat and must have decent claims if he doesn’t get bogged down in the mud. Passing Kate is also worth a second look as she shouldn’t be short of stamina while Lily Grace represents a powerful and in-form NH yard.
