In depth

Verdict

Bumper and hurdles winner Balmusette makes a belated debut on the level but is likely to find a few of these too good over today's trip. That list includes ALNASHAMA (NAP), a runner-up over 7f at Newcastle and Newmarket at the end of last season and expected to appreciate the longer trip. Stay Strong also returns to action after a modest effort at Kempton in December while Cooper has the more recent form with a second at Wolverhampton last month. Udododontu ended last term with a better effort over 7f here and The Special House is a newcomer to note.
