    In depth

    Verdict

    Fangorn has disappointed since finishing second to Spanish Star at Newbury last month and is upped in trip here but Toronado Grey was unlucky not to follow up an earlier success at Brighton over 7f a couple of weeks ago. Model Actress has been threatening to get her head in front but NEPTUNE SEAS (NAP) had the form of his Nottingham victory franked when the runner-up went one better at Yarmouth next time and the Godolphin entry can double his tally in this.
