        In depth

        Verdict

        Go Fox finally opened his account in a lower grade at Yarmouth but Bayston Hill was placed at this level at Epsom last time and makes more appeal. WATERFRONT (NAP) is fitted with a visor for only his second start handicapping having failed to threaten when third at Windsor recently. Simon Crisford’s charge has gone close over track and trip before and can come out best if the headgear has the desired effect. Kingdom Of Dubai looks no nearer winning returning to this longer trip but Dangerous Ends has a shout on an earlier effort at Newbury and Perfecimperfection could go well back on a faster surface today.
