    In depth

    Verdict

    RON O (NAP) has won three of six starts since joining Ray Craggs including over track and trip last time. He drops back down a grade for this and is preferred to another course and distance winner in Bin Hayyan. Mawkeb is another dropping down in class while Crownthorpe returns to this shorter trip with a chance and Perfect Swiss is usually in the mix though was beaten by the selection at the end of last year. Sharvara won as a two-year-old but missed the whole of last year and has switched yards.
