In depth
Verdict
Foreshadow, who is 0-12, has been racing over further and was beaten in a seller at Beverley 11 days ago but still finished well ahead of Ballynaveen Boy. CITY VAULTS was returning from a long absence and having a first run following wind surgery when last at Epsom. He will strip fitter here so gets the nod, though Decoding would also have a chance on his best form.
