In depth

Verdict

The fact that Lafontaine is top rated at 50 tells us plenty about this race and that mark was achieved on the all-weather. EMERALD FOX had Jungle Boogaloo just over a length away when runner-up in a Polytrack nursery at Lingfield and could be good enough if handling the ground but Heleta has changed trainers since a fair effort in a Lingfield nursery back in January. The market should be watched for pointers to the remainder.
