In depth
Verdict
Carlovian won over track and trip last time and should go well again but COVIGLIA is less exposed. The latter has improved for a switch of yards and returned a clear winner over 7f at Wolverhampton last month. Robben Rainbow will take advantage of a slide down the weights before long and the same comment applies to Miss Bates. Wolverhampton runner-up Scotch Myst is proving best on the all-weather though Colour Contrast will likely be in the mix again.
