In depth
Verdict
Hard to be confident about any of these. Taro Tywod has been in good form at Wolverhampton without actually winning and should go close but SIR DYLAN may just edge this as he finished runner-up over 1m3f here last week. Poetry Writer has a shout if staying the longer distance and Merchants Return was denied by the narrowest of margins at Wolverhampton in September. Suedehead needs a bit more but is lightly-raced and it would be no surprise if he finds it in this lowly company.
