In depth
Verdict
Ring Of Gold finished runner-up over track and trip a couple of days ago and is still penalised for an earlier success at Wolverhampton. Magicinthemaking returned from a lay-off with a good effort here last month but Dors Toyboy remains 6lb higher than when winning over today’s trip at Chelmsford earlier. Lincoln Gamble may do better in a first-time tongue-tie but STRATEGIC FORTUNE never recovered form a slow start at Wolverhampton last time and gets the vote on an earlier head defeat over course and distance.
