In depth

Verdict

Fortissimo is creeping closer and gets a change of headgear on his first start at this venue. Break The Silence is a course regular and won over track and trip earlier in the month when SYLVIACLIFFS finished third. But the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms today and Karl Burke’s filly is taken to turn the tables and come out best. Muqarred has finished behind Break The Silence the last twice now while Fly True still looks a shade high in the weights on previous winning form at the track though is preferred to winning plater Kodiline.
