In depth
Verdict
At Your Service was due to run in the 5.10 here last night so that result should be monitored. Catapult has only run on this surface once before but has won on Polytrack and Fibresand. Egotistic won a claimer here a little under a year ago and ran well for third in a handicap at Kempton last month. He appears to be the pick of the weights on those efforts but Roy Brotherton has booked the promising 7lb claimer Callum Hutchinson for course and distance winner MIRACLE GARDEN and the nine-year-old has a decent chance in a race like this if proving amenable to restraint.
