Keepup Kevin’s winning run came to an end off today’s mark at Leicester and Roman Spinner’s head defeat over track and trip came in a lower grade. The latter has yet to win on Turf while Queen Of Burgundy has a bit to prove over today’s trip having raced mostly over 6f so far. Masked Identity moves in the opposite direction having gone close over a mile at Ascot earlier but SIR TITAN showed signs of a resurgence at Newmarket last time, having returned to a winning mark, and Tony Carroll’s charge may prove the one to side with in this.
