In depth

Verdict

Miss Matterhorn was still well beaten when second at Chepstow but It's How We Roll finished runner-up over track and trip last week and can race off the same mark. But the latter was fourth here before that behind MERLIN’S BEARD, who was narrowly beaten in third on that occasion and looks set to open his account with any further progress. Lanika makes most appeal of the remainder returning to today’s trip.
