In depth

Verdict

Rated 84, MILITARY MISSION looks to have leading claims in a weak contest. The latter returned to action with a second at Redcar on his first attempt at 1m2f and should be bang there at the finish. East Coast Road placed over a mile on last year’s debut and can figure but the remainder have plenty of improvement to find. Jim Crowley partners Sarrood ahead of Jawhary while the newcomer Modestus, a half-brother to a Group 2 winner, is preferred to stablemate Keeper.
