In depth
Verdict
Delph Crescent is penalised having won easily at Ripon last week, though finished behind Deinonychus over track and trip in July. The latter hasn’t figured since and Howzer Black has struggled since winning here back in June. Pot Of Paint disappointed over course and distance last time but better is expected from Delta's Royalty handicapping for the first time. MARK OF GOLD (NAP) opened his account in good style in soft going at Bath recently and Richard Hannon’s colt can go in again with conditions to suit and further progress likely.
