In depth

Verdict

None of these three-year-olds have run over this far before but SEA OF MARMOON made a winning reappearance over 1m2f at Newcastle last week and a chance is taken she lasts home despite carrying a penalty. Dame Denali was narrowly beaten over 1m4f at Lingfield with Evaporust back in fifth when last in action and major improvement is expected from Alphabetical over this longer distance now handicapping for the first time. Breeding suggests Dangeroffizz and Opine will also appreciate the extra yardage and they make most appeal of the remainder.
