        In depth

        Verdict

        A rather modest affair with no stand-out candidates. Colton is possibly a bit better than form figures would suggest and he didn’t handle soft going on his reappearance at Musselburgh. Sicilian Belle also has claims while Miss Bella Brand has placed in four of her six starts on the all-weather. OOH IS IT has been dropped 2lb since failing to get a run at Wolverhampton an is probably the form pick on an earlier third at Chepstow.
