In depth

Verdict

Valkyrian won over a mile a Leicester recently and Evening Story scored over the same distance earlier. Measured Moments beat Mogwai when scoring over today’s trip during the summer but remains 7lb higher so it could pay to stick with the dual Epsom winner LETHAL TOUCH, even though she has been raised 4lb for her latest success. Rosa Chinensis has plenty of scope and could go well.
