In depth

Verdict

RIOT (NAP) finished with another late rattle to land a course and distance double and the hat-trick beckons raised only 2lb. Revolutionise finished behind the selection earlier while both Prince of Zenda and Darwell Lion will be sharper for recent outings. Sterling Knight failed to cope with a 4lb rise last time having won at Wolverhampton earlier while Tremblant debuts for a new yard having won for Andre Fabre on the Polytrack in France earlier this year.
