        In depth

        Verdict

        None of these inspire confidence as you’d expect at this lowly level but BUBBLY BAILEY was winning off a much higher mark on the all-weather at this time last year and may prove good enough on his return from a lay-off. Essaka can race off a lower mark back on this surface while Popsilca, Billy's Boots and Cherry Leyf have all slid down the weights and the latter posted one of her better efforts at Yarmouth in July when last partnered by Milly Naseb.
