In depth
Verdict
Mi Capricho scored over track and trip before beating Coviglia a neck over a mile here and is upped a further 3lb. Langholm went close in soft going last time while Oriental Lilly’s earlier success at the track came over 6f. Mind That Jet has been thereabouts on the all-weather lately but ZENZERO posted his best effort so far when a close-up fourth over course and distance last week in a first-time visor and David O’Meara’s charge gets the vote with headgear remaining in place.
