      In depth

      Verdict

      Cloudlam drops back down in trip having placed over 1m4f at Wolverhampton recently and also gets a change of headgear. Sajanjl moves in the opposite direction on the back of finishing third over a mile at Kempton while Be Thankful also placed over a mile here before struggling over today’s trip. Purchased from Godolphin at the autumn sales, ICE PYRAMID debuts for new connections having found only one too good over 1m2f at Redcar back in June. A chance is taken Philip Kirby’s charge is ready for action on his reappearance and he gets the vote.
