In depth
Verdict
Plenty with chances in this including Lastkingofscotland. He's been trying his best to get his head back in front without success and a wide draw doesn't help his cause today. Hawk Moth has a shout on his third at Wolverhampton in August and Frognal scored at the same track on his penultimate start. Shaunas Spirit also arrives on the back of a win at Dunstall Park but the vote goes to BASSETT ROAD. The latter has joined Keith Dalgleish having ran out an easy winner at Salisbury last month and remains on a winning mark compared to his best form despite a 6lb rise.
