In depth
Verdict
DARK SHIFT returned a disappointing favourite on the fast ground at York on his handicap debut. But today’s underfoot conditions will be more to his liking and an earlier double in novice company included a course and distance success. One Night Stand has been raised 8lb for winning at Nottingham but Bernardo O'Reilly finished closer at Haydock last time and is preferred to Dazzling Dan, who drops down in trip. Ascot Adventure goes handicapping for the first time and has more scope than the likes of Tinto and Chairmanoftheboard.
