In depth
Verdict
MORNINGTON won on his handicap debut at Brighton on last month’s return to action. He only needed to be pushed out and there should be more to come from Marcus Tregoning’s charge over this longer trip. Sunny Future ended last year with a victory over 2m here but scored over today’s distance earlier in the season while Sellingallthetime remains on a winning mark and was narrowly beaten at Catterick on his reappearance. Plymouth Sound has not won since making a winning debut back in 2014.
