In depth

Verdict

This should concern just the two runners, Monkerhostin and Flame Creek. The former has been kept busy, but probably turned in his best effort to date, when close up in the valuable Swinton hurdle. If he can reproduce that he is sure to take all the beating. In contrast, Flame Creek has been handled with kid gloves, but has shown a fair level of form. If he is fit, he will prove a tough nut to crack.
