In depth

Verdict

Seinesational has won five times on the Flat but is struggling to get his head in front over timber. However, he has finished second three times and will probably be at short odds to go one better today. Not At Present is back in maiden company having run in handicaps the last twice. He was only beaten a short-head last time at Market Rasen but we’ll take a chance on FARMER’S GAMBLE. Dan Skelton’s newcomer is a full brother to the useful Straw Fan Jack and bred to stay.
