In depth

Verdict

A couple arrive on the back of recent wins with Libor Lad scoring at Uttoxeter and preferred to Market Rasen winner General Hubble, who won on a faster surface over a longer trip. But RARE CLOUDS (NAP) was beaten less than a length when placed in a tougher contest than this at Chepstow last month and a similar effort should see him back to winning ways. Hill Of Tara has a shout though had every chance at Haydock yesterday.
