In depth

Verdict

Prince Of Passion will go close if reproducing his recent form on the Polytrack and he beat Another Citizen, Going French and Methaaly at Wolverhampton last month. Spread Boy opened his account at the 36th time of asking at Carlisle and doesn't look the type to follow-up on that statistic but Interchoice Star has a shout if fully tuned-up on his return to action. TWO TURTLE DOVES has gone close on her last couple of starts and is taken to go one better today from a decent draw off only a 1lb higher mark.
