In depth

Verdict

BLUE MEDICI has won twice under amateur Becky Smith recently and Cieren Fallon takes over the reins on his hat-trick bid. Suited by galloping tracks, the joint top weight is taken to extend his winning run. Mark Loughnane also runs in-form Nottingham winner Destinys Rock while Dutch Coed is chasing a four-timer but has never won outside of Class 6 company. Simbirsk’s only poor run this year came on soft ground and Four Kingdoms is edging towards a winning mark.
