In depth
Verdict
Fabulous Flyer has been running well over 5f but her earlier win came in Class 7f company. Justice Rock went close here on his penultimate start but remains without a win in 34 attempts and preference goes to VIRILE, who won off a higher mark last year and has shown signs of returning to form recently. He may prove good enough in a poor sprint while Foxford is not badly treated and Fleeting Glimpse is one of the least exposed and may do better.
