In depth

Verdict

ONE HART is creeping closer as he slides further down the weights and this return to a longer trip will suit after going close over 5f here. Ginato was narrowly beaten over track and trip before a less impressive effort over 7f at Southwell while Tathmeen is usually in the mix without winning. Athollblair Boy is back on a winning mark but True Mason and Global Vision are looking to end long losing runs.
