    In depth

    Verdict

    Shadowfax finished in front of Prince Abu when fourth over track and trip and cheekpieces are applied for the first time. Big Jimbo and Manyana placed over a shorter trip last time and the former is also fitted with headgear for this but PERIPETEIA won over today’s distance at Wolverhampton before placing over a shorter trip so she gets another chance.
