In depth

Verdict

King Oswald scored over track and trip a week ago but may not get such a favourable trip today having been drawn wide and MAN OF VERVE is preferred. The latter also won over course and distance a fortnight ago when beating Lollys Dream and Rivas Rob Roy in the process and is taken to defy a 3lb rise. Arrowzone has a shout on recent form with the selection while Herm could also figure if lasting home after going close over a mile at Lingfield recently.
