In depth

Verdict

The veteran WILD DESERT has found a new lease of life this year and bids for a hat-trick after scoring over shorter trips both here and at Salisbury. He can defy a penalty given he scored by six lengths last time with Lucky Diva back in fourth. Halling's Wish also carries 6lb extra for his length defeat of Nora Batty at Salisbury. But he had earlier been beaten by Noor Al Haya over 2m at Lingfield with Snow Conditions further behind. Cameley Dawn finished ahead of Josie's Dream when runner-up here last month and has subsequently finished second again at Brighton.
