In depth

Verdict

Zelensky has strong claims in a poor contest if able to reproduce the best of his juvenile form but ran abysmally of 72 in a course and distance handicap and has something to prove despite a drop in grade. Red Delerium, successful on three occasions in selling company on the all-weather during the winter, should also appreciate a return to this level. Shannon Flyer has a chance on his second in a Goodwood handicap off 62 last term but appears on the downgrade and Dextrous needs to show significant improvement on his poor Newcastle return earlier in the month.
