      In depth

      Verdict

      Testa Rossa won over track and trip for the third time on his latest start. But he’s upped a grade off a higher mark today and those dropping down in class make more appeal. That includes CHEVALLIER, placed on his last five outings with a third in Class 2 company at Chelmsford looking the best recent form on offer. Jacbequick is at home at this level but has yet to win away from Beverley and Constantino looks a bigger threat on his second over track and trip a fortnight ago. Faithful Creek looks no nearer ending a long losing run and Dusky Dawn is best at Southwell.
