Verdict
Covent Garden, the winner of a 12-furlong maiden on the flat, is open to any amount of improvement at this trip and he should prove too strong for In Extremis II, who is effective over this trip, as he showed when runner up to the progressive Noel's Pride at Sedgefield. Lingham Bridesmaid should be good enough to deprive Cheyenne Chief of third spot.
