In depth
Verdict
Passing Star won a claimer on the all-weather recently and Air Of York won over 7f at Wolverhampton last week. Kinglami won an apprentices’ race over the minimum trip at Hamilton and escapes a penalty but is upped in class while Picket Line was ahead of Oeil De Tigre when scoring at Windsor last month. Spirit Of Rosanna went close over track and trip last time but it was soft ground when SATCHVILLE FLYER won over course and distance during the week and he gets the vote to defy a 6lb rise.
