In depth
Verdict
Just the four runners but all have some sort of chance, though only Cosmic George has so far run on Turf. Dancing King is still improving and arrives on a hat-trick but LIVERPOOL KNIGHT has begun to fulfil his potential, winning easily upped to 1m4f at Wolverhampton in February, and he should reverse earlier form with Duke Of Verona.
