    In depth

    Verdict

    Evanescent went close over 7f at Lingfield recently but Monarch Maid finished well behind the winner when runner-up over the same trip at Kempton. BLACK TRUFFLE is preferred as he only found one too good over today’s trip at Wolverhampton last time and can race off the same mark here. Strictly Carter and Billyoakes are capable off their current marks if the mood takes them but Bop It was due to run at last night’s meeting at Wolverhampton.
