In depth

Verdict

Hanga Roa couldn't cope with older horses at Sandown last time and may have a better chance back against his own age group. But his best form has come on faster ground and preference is for POETIC VERSE, who is conceding weight all round but was just beaten at Leicester on his debut before finishing third in a Listed race last time. Tinctoria has been placed twice and has been entered on a realistic weight. With Robert Williams taking off a further 5lb, she shouldn't be far away.
