In depth
Verdict
Romany Nights was sent off favourite last time out and was doing all his best at the finish he will love this trip and be hard to beat. Service rates a big danger he will love the fast ground and will relish the extra distance. Valiant Romeo beat Romany Nights last time but he gave the impression he will be better at the minimum trio. Repeat ran well at Redcar last time out and would have won but for hanging if he stays straight he will be hard to beat. Avonbridge won well last time out at Lingfield and should go well and he could still be well in despite top weight.
