In depth

Verdict

Quel Destin was never travelling at Ascot but is back over his best trip today. Eden Du Houx lacks a recent run while Bennys King will be a teenager in a few weeks time. Flagrant Delitiep is well treated nowadays but hasn’t won since March of last year and is probably best at Wincanton. Chepstow runner-up Can You Call is still unexposed over fences but OXYGEN jumped like an old hand at Lingfield where he had the proverbial ton in hand. He’s getting 19lb from all-the-way Wetherby winner The Edgar Wallace.
