      In depth

      Verdict

      Schiaparannie has already found Listed company too hot to handle twice this season. Pink Legend has gone right off the boil since winning at Ascot in the autumn but Galice Macalo is improving with experience. Twice a winner at Cheltenham recently, VIENNA COURT has made giant strides since finishing more than nine lengths behind Leicester winner Maskada at Bangor in the autumn and is fancied to turn the tables, despite re-opposing on the same terms.
