      In depth

      Verdict

      Several have shown progressive form this season including Ashington. But the latter is upped 9lb after romping home at Brighton last time and is also stepping up a grade along with course and distance winner Volevo Lui. RUSTANG, however, scored in this grade at Newbury to win for the third time in only five starts this year and it’s Richard Hughes’ charge that gets the vote in a tricky contest. Reshoun drops in class if taking part but was due to run at York yesterday.
