In depth
Verdict
Ginato debuts for a new yard and has a shout on his placed form at Dundalk while Royal Advice won over track and trip before beaten over 7f here. Exalted Leader and Nagasaki Dream finished closer at Wolverhampton last time and the former gets a change of headgear while Carbon Positive should be noted on his handicap debut. But NIGHT OF ROMANCE posted a better effort back over today’s trip at Lingfield last time and Karl Burke’s filly can figure again with more to come.
