In depth

Verdict

For Life continues in excellent form and can land the hat-trick this afternoon, Millisecond and Makabul look to be the main rivals. Natalia Gemelova has steered this one to two all the way victories and although she had to work hard last time there could be more to come. Millisecond has also been in great form, winning here and at Lingfield. Her recent fourth at Goodwood was also a creditable effort and she is hard to discount. Makabul finished runner up in a very competitiove race at Windsor last time out and should again be involved in the finish. Sacre Coeur has also been knocking on the door recently and should go well under JP. However there could still be more to come from For Life and he gets the verdict.
