In depth

Verdict

An unappealing handicap but POPSIES JOY went close on soft going last season and may prove good enough after a better effort at Beverley last week. This is tougher than the seller Fidelma Moon was placed in last time while Cool Strutter has not won on Turf since 2014 though finished well ahead of Lukoutoldmakezebak when third at Thirsk back in April. Reinforced won over 6f in soft ground last term but arrives in woeful form.
