In depth
Verdict
Maygold is a potential improver after showing promise on both starts, while Avon Green should appreciate this trip after showing speed over 6f on debut. The two to concentrate on, though, are Time For Wine and BATH AND TENNIS . The latter, down the field at Royal Ascot, was a little unlucky last time and this looks a winning opportunity.
