In depth

Verdict

HASHTAGMETOO had to challenge down the outside at Brighton earlier this month but was only beaten half-a-length and could make amends today if the gaps open in time. Dawn View has also been in good form at Brighton and can’t be ignored but Coverham tries a new trip and Militry Decoration seems better over further nowadays. None of the others can be ruled out in an open-looking start to proceedings.
