In depth

Verdict

A chance is taken with YOU NEVER SAID as he may provide a little in the way of value against Latanier and Spanish Conquest. Charlie Egerton's charge attracted a little support ahead of his debut in an Ascot bumper having shown promise in an Irish point. On his sole start in that sphere he finished second to Kangaroo Court who was impressive at Doncaster on Friday and You Never Said may benefit from the switch to hurdling. The weight that he receives from Latanier will come in handy as Venetia Williams' charge was impressive when opening his account at Leicester; he should be able to build on that and rates the one to beat. Circus Of Dreams has place claims again whilst Spanish Quest and Yossi are both interesting recruits from the Flat for whom support should be noted but we'll take a chance with You Never Said.
