      In depth

      Verdict

      A very modest affair to star proceedings. Flying Romance failed to take advantage of a lenient all-weather mark earlier in the week but is in good heart and is taken to land the prize. Runaway Star looks the danger on the book. Denise Best was gambled on last time out but looks a long way past her best these days.
