In depth

Verdict

ASIAN WING was heavily supported when stepping up to two miles last month and punters didn't have a moment's concern. He's won twice over the track and trip so stepping down shouldn't be a problem and though a 9lb rise looks excessive he can follow-up. Well Insured was beaten over 8l into fourth but is undoubtedly better at this trip and should get closer on these terms. Raydari has been jumping and hasn't won for almost two years but he ran his best race for a long time earlier this month and in that kind of form should make the frame. House Limit doesn't win often and his consistency ensures he remains on the same mark though he's been narrowly beaten over slightly shorter recently.
