In depth
Verdict
Spoof’s last victory came off a 13lb higher mark but the Kempton runner-up struggles to get his head in front nowadays. A similar comment applies to Boom The Groom while only one of Real Estate’s six career victories has come on Turf. Moonraker is best on Fibresand but War Whisper is likely to give a good account having slipped down the ratings and Union Rose likes it here. DELAGATE THIS LORD (NAP) is a Bath specialist and a run over a trip too far at Newmarket will have blown away any cobwebs. He looks to have a good draw and has his ground so will have no excuses.
