      In depth

      Verdict

      NENGE MBOKO has the best piece of form on offer by some way. His second behind Hipster in soft ground at Epsom stands out and he was racing in much better company when failing to figure at Goodwood last time. It was fast ground when Spanish Art finished runner-up over C&D last month and Gigawatt also races on soft going for the first time having made a promising debut at Epsom. David's Secret made his introduction in better company at Newbury and should do better here.
