    In depth

    Verdict

    Union Rose knows her way around here having won three times on the track and from much higher marks. But CASE KEY was only headed inside the final furlong when tackling 6f at Yarmouth and, though raised 2lb, is still lower than his last handicap victory. Swanton Blue bounced back to a bit of form at Windsor and wouldn't need much more but Perfect Symphony is probably better over slightly further, a remark that also applies to Gilt Edge.
