In depth
Verdict
Fortunate Bid has been back on a winning mark for some time and showed a bit more at Thirsk on his latest start. He should figure but RYEDALE DANCER gets the token vote. She scored at Newcastle last month and can race off a lower mark back on the Polytrack. Flash Fox is hard to assess on his first start for new connections but is a winner in Germany while Tigertoo finished a close-up fourth at Kempton last time and should be in the mix with a 7lb claimer helping his cause. Deep Applause looks best of the remainder.
