In depth

Verdict

Imperial Glance is 5lb higher than when scoring at Salisbury last season while Pick A Little hasn't won on Turf since 2011. Siouxperhero was a well beaten fourth here last time but Darnathean won over 7f here earlier in the month and should go close again despite a 5lb higher mark. Orders From Rome is a rare winner who has slipped down the weights but the vote goes to the returning SONNETATION, three times a winner last year including once on the Turf and only 3lb higher today.
