In depth

Verdict

Volito's latest 4lb rise is offset by an apprentice's allowance and he should make a bold bid to land a hat-trick of course and distance victories. Parisian Pyramid ran well in better company here last week and will figure with a similar effort but the grey is on a long losing run and TEMPLE ROAD is just preferred. Milton Bradley's charge has slipped down the weights and ran his best race since returning to action in January when third to Spellmaker at this track last month. R Woody and Where's Reiley do most of their winning in plating races nowadays and make limited appeal.
