        In depth

        Verdict

        Most of these are looking to put a disappointing effort last time behind them. Headline News had the excuse of racing in better company but Astra Hall, Rockfella and Authorized Too all turned in poor runs having run well previously with the latter scoring at Yarmouth. It remains to be seen how BIKINI ISLAND gets on now handicapping, but she was only beaten a nose at Chester last month and looks to have every chance on that form.
