In depth
Verdict
Triphenia won a messy race last time out and he may struggle in a race that is sure to be run at a strong pace. Thewhirlingdervish is from a shrewd yard and he won well at Pontefract last time out and he could go well off his feather weight. First Ballot is the class horse of the race loves this course and he to could run well despite top weight. Ranville ran well last time out and he could be coming to hand and he to rates a danger to all.
