In depth
Verdict
Inexplicable won over a shorter trip here in April while Caracristi scored over track and trip in March and Odd Socks Havana has been thereabouts since winning at Newcastle in the same month. Lhebayeb has placed at Bath recently and Sun Festival went close at Windsor but the unexposed LAILAH (NAP) is having only her second start in a handicap and she gets the vote with James Fanshawe’s yard in good form.
