In depth

Verdict

Over And Above beat Solway Bay only a length over track and trip last time with Generous Chief and Acrai Rua well beaten. It's hard to separate the former pair in this so the vote goes to MIA'S ANTHEM on the back of a fourth at Hexham last month. Oh Right has struggled off higher marks since landing a double last year while Urban Gale remains below his best despite sliding down the weights and the remainder are even harder to fancy.
