In depth
Verdict
All bar Pillar Of Fire and Toby can be considered. Noel's Pride keeps nudging up the weights for placed efforts. Orange Order has an absence to overcome but that does not always deter him. Granny Rich was disappointing at Newton Abbot two days ago but may not have stayed that day. Night Fighter has been absent for 163 days and will need to keep up the progression this time around while Commanche Wind is fairly lightly raced, will appreciate the step back in trip today and could have improvement still to come.
