        In depth

        Verdict

        Irie Ute got off the mark at Southwell recently when all out to hang on for victory. The booking of Jamie Spencer suggests another big run is expected and he looks sure to be thereabouts back on the Polytrack. SKY DIAMOND returned to winning ways over an extended mile here last time. He led a long way out on that occasion and today's drop back in distance shouldn't inconvenience him. He gets the vote here now seemingly best to his best. Better Self looks held and Bachelor Knight disappointed in a seller here latest.
