      In depth

      Verdict

      The Fonz was a decent middle-distance handicapper on the Flat and has shown promise in both starts over timber. He should have no trouble opening his account in the near future. Winning pointer Listen Boy was a fair fourth in a decent bumper at Chepstow on his debut under Rules, while City Press only weakened on the run to the last having made much of the running at Aintree last month. SUPER DUTY looks more than capable of following up his wide-margin win at Carlisle, however, despite the penalty.
