In depth

Verdict

Blow Your Horn made a promising debut when runner-up over 7f here last month. He should be in the mix once again with normal progress but DISCOVERY ISLAND went close over today’s trip at Newmarket when last in action and Charlie Appleby’s charge is taken to make a winning reappearance on that form. Cemhaan is another returning from a lay-off and a likely improver representing John Gosden’s yard while Mick finished closer over track and trip recently and the newcomer Yes My Boy is related to useful winners over middle-distances.
