In depth
Verdict
Sir Dudley went close at Lingfield a fortnight ago but is upped a further 5lb for his trouble. Kyllukey landed a double before failing to figure off today’s mark here while Another Boy was beaten less than a length when placed at Bath under today’s apprentice. Mutarajjil and Symposium are lightly-raced and could figure on their handicap debuts but INLAND SEA (NAP) was beaten only a neck at Lingfield on his first start in a handicap so Richard Hannon’s colt gets the nod in a tight contest.
