In depth
Verdict
The final day's racing at Folkestone, for the time being at least, can get underway with a victory for Noel Fehily on the German import LORD OF HOUSE. Charlie Mann's four-year-old is improving with experience over hurdles and wasn't beaten far in what looked a decent contest at Uttoxeter last time. Whipcrackaway took a long time to wear down Mr Lando at Fontwell last week and may not have much scope while last year's Longchamp winner Pine Creek is best watched on his hurdles bow having his first run since April. Leicester scorer Tealissio will find this tough under a penalty but If In Doubt is worth noting after just one run in a bumper.
