      In depth

      Verdict

      Dark Company had a below par Fieldsman back in fifth when scoring at Southwell to end a long losing run. But WONDER STARELZAAM continued his good progress with another victory at Lingfield last month and Denis Coakley’s charge looks worth sticking with given the ease of that success. Simulation Theory has won off today’s mark on Turf and is preferred to Hold Fast of the remaining pair.
