      In depth

      Verdict

      TIBBIE DUNBAR opened her account on the Flat with a convincing success over 1m6f on the Turf course at Lingfield. A winner over hurdles, this extra distance should hold no fears for Stuart Kittow’s mare. Orin Swift has yet to win over this far though placed over 2m at Goodwood earlier while Twilight Prince finished third over the same trip at Chepstow in April. Earth Giant is unexposed and makes his handicap debut for a yard in good form.
