In depth

Verdict

TRINITY GIRL had little chance at the weights in a conditions' race last time and ran accordingly. But she landed a double with a course and distance success before that and another bold bid is expected back in handicap company. Bakersboy steps up from 1m2f carrying a penalty for winning a novices' race at Lingfield while Koeman has also been in the mix over shorter trips at the same track. Summertime Romance returns to action 7lb higher than when scoring at Kempton last year.
