In depth

Verdict

Dark Shot has already been second twice over this course and distance and is back in the right grade but he's proving hard to place. Gunmetal should be winning soon based on his Newbury second, though that was over 7f. Big Chill went close a few times last year but his form tailed off in the autumn and he looks vulnerable against younger rivals. The Invisible Dog changed hands for 70,000 euros last year but has taken a long time to make it to the track. MALAKKY lost all chance at the start on his debut at Newbury last year but wasn't given a hard time and made late headway. He'll be more the finished article now and gets a speculative vote.
