Verdict
Deputy could only manage third at Newbury off today’s mark having won at the same track before that and MARLAY PARK is preferred as he was beaten only a neck back over today’s trip at Epsom last time, despite failing to get a clear run, and is eased in grade. Hajjam’s recent second at Ascot came in an amateurs’ race while Cityzen Serg never troubled the winner when runner-up over track and trip last month.
