In depth
Verdict
VIBRANCE could only manage third attempting to land a four-timer of course and distance victories. But she wasn’t beaten far and gets another chance off her current mark returning from a break. Orin Swift was runner-up at York in October and could go well while Sexy Beast, a winner over 1m6f, could also figure if lasting home. Casa Comigo has a bit to find with the selection on running here while Next Train's Gone has been off the track since notching-up a hat-trick back in 2017.
