In depth

Verdict

Forceful Appeal scored over track and trip last month and should go well again raised only 4lb. But TATTING also won over course and distance a fortnight ago, when ahead of Rizal Park, and Chris Dwyer's charge makes more appeal given he remains on a winning mark. Two Moons was still well beaten when runner-up at Southwell last time and Brighton maiden winner Manipulation hasn't raced since 2013. Both Mr Red Clubs and the returning Arrowzone have something to prove off their current marks.
