In depth

Verdict

Great Choice, Mercers Court and Padge have all won between the flags and would be worth a second look if attracting market support. Grey Eral and Son Of Suzie have hinted at ability but the nicely-bred KINGS BANDIT will be ready for this, despite being absent since starting favourite at Newcastle in March on his debut. He only finished fourth that day but it will be a surprise if he doesn't leave that effort well behind this term.
