In depth
Verdict
Haldon Hill was no match for the progressive Umbrigado here last month though won a bumper at the track earlier and should be in the mix. But SAINT DE VASSY found one too good in maiden company before placing in a handicap at Carlisle last time when clear of the rest. Tom Symonds’ charge gets the nod back at this level on that form. Endless Flight and Jog On look likely improvers while Dolphin Square is worth noting debuting under Rules having joined Philip Hobbs’ yard after winning between the flags in January.
