In depth
Verdict
Rated 82, LEXINGTON KNIGHT just missed out in the soft going at Carlisle last time. Richard Hannon’s charge should have the measure of these on today’s terms including Mashaan, who steps back up in trip and returns to the Turf on his reappearance. Bringsty disappointed over a mile at Windsor last time and is fitted with a hood while Equiem is related to a winner on the all-weather in France.
