      In depth

      Verdict

      All of these two-year-olds step up in distance and Astaroth landed a double over 7f last month before beaten over a mile. Mezzanotte and Single Minded may finish closer on the back of handicap debuts while WHITCLIFFE goes handicapping for the first time. The latter has improved over 7f with every outing so far and gets the vote with William Buick taking over the reins.
