        raced freely, made all, clear when edged left over 1f out, stayed on well, unchallenged

        In depth

        Verdict

        Titus Bolt won at Newcastle last month but never figured stepped up to 1m4f last time. With stamina doubts over today's even longer trip, he's overlooked in favour of RAYADOUR. The latter has yet to win but finished second at Doncaster last week and it could finally be his turn today. There was little between Frosty Berry and Goodlukin Lucy over 2m here last time though neither threatened the winner and finished well ahead of Grandad Bill. Landesherr looks best of the rest off his current mark.
