      In depth

      Verdict

      Strawberry Jack finished in front of Samphire Coast when winning in this grade over track and trip and can confirm running but Papa Stour is raised in class after finishing runner-up at Newcastle on his reappearance. The latter will be sharper for that outing but ULTIMATE AVENUE (NAP) should also be spot on now having placed in Class 2 company at Lingfield a week ago. He’ll find this easier and David Simcock’s charge should make a bold bid. Glory of Paris is usually thereabouts at this level and last won at this time last year while Eljaddaaf is preferred to In The Cove of the remainder.
