        tracked leader, ridden over 1f out, faded last 100 yards

        In depth

        Verdict

        A couple of powerful yards run recent maiden winners. IMPORTANT MISSION and Mooltazem opened their accounts at Newcastle and Ripon respectively and both beat subsequent winners. But the Haggas charge may just edge this with Georgia Cox’ 5lb allowance coming into play. Scala Regia faces a more difficult task on worse terms with runner-up Badenscoth after winning at Kempton but Ourmullion should confirm running with Toy Theatre after going close over track and trip. Goodwood winner Cyrus Dallin came up short in this grade at Newmarket last time but Favourite Royal may do better back on the all-weather today.
