In depth

Verdict

Plenty with claims including Nottingham runner-up Diavolo and Salisbury second Marching Army, who both represent powerful yards. But JASMINE JOY found only the progressive Free Wind, now rated 92, too good at Doncaster last time and James Fanshawe’s filly gets the nod on that form. Maiden winner Platinumcard is penalised while Tall Order steps up in trip on his seasonal bow and the newcomer Tres Speciale cost €220,000.
