In depth

Verdict

Harome finished last at Carlisle after winning at Hamilton but Rusumaat can be forgiven his run in the Coventry at Ascot having got off the mark by seven lengths at Redcar earlier. However, he'll do well to win this under a penalty as there are several in this field with more scope. Suitcase 'n' Taxi was beaten under a length in a Thirsk maiden two weeks ago and makes more appeal than Notalot. He was still beaten seven lengths when second at Nottingham, though his trainer's juvenile's boast a 75 per cent strike rate here. LONDON GRAMMAR was still a little green at Redcar 11 days ago but is improving all the time and can make it third-time lucky here at the main expense of Thirsk runner-up Peach Pavlova and newcomer Whigwham.
