        In depth

        Verdict

        French Executive won well on this course last time out when defeating Jazz Duke and is proven on the ground. He will surely be hard to beat if in the same mood despite his rise in the weights and is the TEAMtalk selection. Atavistic won well at Stratford last time out and is game and consistent but he has never won off a mark this high. Jeremy Spider was a progressive novice last year and has won on soft ground so he could go well at a fair price. Mr Markham is well weighted on his best form but his debut effort this season did not inspire much confidence. Under Wraps has plenty of ability but has had breathing problems of late and is readily passed over. Just Maybe also has a chance on his best form but is better on faster ground.
