In depth

Verdict

The application of a visor has brought improvement from ATAILOF TWO CITIES. She scored by a distance at Catterick last week, despite being eased close home, and can shrug off a penalty. Spycracker has improved for the step up to 1m6f and went close at Musselburgh last time but Bouncing Bobby was still beaten a long way when runner-up over the same distance. Eagle's Foot and Teescomponentsfly are others upped in trip with the former fitted with additional headgear and preferred while War Empress has been placed over today’s trip on the all-weather.
