Previous results

In depth

Verdict

Mr Zee won at Windsor last time but has been raised 4lb and Luke Catton was claiming his 5lb allowance on that occasion. Twilight Guest and Bay Of Naples posted better efforts last time while Haaf A Diamond has been in good form over shorter trips lately. FILLYFUDGE floundered in the slow going at Yarmouth last month having won at the same track before that and she gets another chance back on fast ground.
