        In depth

        Verdict

        Balducci is dropped in class and the veteran Suits me is still capable at this level. Dubai Dynamo makes a quick reappearance after last Saturday's sixth at Newcastle but there's nothing in the form book to suggest any of the above trio will be suited by today's going. However, the mile trip in soft ground will be to LE CHAT D'OR's liking and after a close-up fourth at Haydock last time, it could be his turn again today. Sound Advice and Invincible Hero are others to consider with the latter preferred on this surface.
