      held up in rear but in touch, beaten over 2f out

      In depth

      Verdict

      There is little between most of these on today's terms though the veteran New Leyf is well treated if still capable of running up to his mark. But ELUSIVITY has the best recent form with an earlier fourth to Boomerang Bob reading well in this context and Conor Dore's charge may prove good enough. Ocean Legend has the beating of Thataboy and Swiss Cross on collateral form but both Grosmont and Galvanize look up against it at the weights.
