In depth
Verdict
Peace Of Mine won over 1m2f at Nottingham earlier while Sudden Ambush was upped in trip at Sandown last time having earlier scored at Goodwood. FARASI LANE (NAP) is another dropping back down in distance and given he was beaten less than a length at Kempton when last seen over today’s trip, Tom Ward’s charge may prove the one to side with. Snapcracklepop won over course and distance last summer and is preferred to Sly Madam of the reaminder.
