        In depth

        Verdict

        It could pay to concentrate on just a handful here, with the classy ex-Flat horse Double Honour is just preferred over Fragrant Rose and Spring Dawn - although Champagne Lil and El Blade are both respected and are worth a cautionary look when the pieces are revealed. However, Double Honour took well enough to hurdles to expect him to continue his progression into chasing. And his style of running should ensure that he stays out of trouble should a few of these be in need of the experience. Fragrant Rose benefits from her mares allowance and rates as the biggest danger after a competent, if unimpressive debut over fences at Huntingdon last month. However, she has been done for a change of gears in the past and, like Spring Dawn, may find Double Honour has slipped his field when push comes to shove.
