        In depth

        Verdict

        Bulldog Drummond has been staying on over 7f so could find this on the short side. Edergole's Gift had better-fancied rivals behind when runner-up at Brighton while Gamblers Kitty was very green at Yarmouth but ran on when getting the hang of the job. Sommelier has been absent since reportedly finished lame at Southwell in April so the vote goes to GRACEFUL MARY, a very speedily-bred daughter of Blue Point who has travelled down from North Yorkshire for this.
