    In depth

    Verdict

    Arabian Beauty will find this tougher after wins at Catterick and Brighton last time. Fire Fighting won at Brighton last month when SERENA GRAE (NAP) finished third. But the latter can re-oppose on much better terms today so Marcus Tregoning's filly gets the vote having won over 1m2f here earlier. Pack Leader posted one of his better efforts at Epsom last time but is unreliable and Hedge End usually finds a way of getting beat.
