In depth

Verdict

Little Earl ran green at Windsor but was keeping on once the penny dropped, though gives the impression an extra furlong wouldn’t come amiss. Littlemyhoulihan weakened quickly when last of four at Musselburgh and MY PROFESSOR makes more appeal. He was poorly drawn and hampered at the start at Salisbury but still finished on the heels of the placed horses and will know more today. Poppy Petal is a half-sister to three winners but bred for further.
