In depth

Verdict

An uninspiring contest but Refuse Colette at least arrives off the back of a recent win, at Nottingham, though her record on the all-weather is abysmal. SHOWTIME STAR was second over track and trip earlier this month and should again beat third Rufford. Gay Kelleway's charge gets a tentative vote ahead of Whaleweigh Station, who is starting to come down the weights, and Lead A Merry Dance. Head Space won at Newbury last month but then finished last in this grade at Redcar.
