In depth
Verdict
This looks wide-open and Luxford has been raised 5lb after winning at Chelsmford but Rum Swizzle is back on a winning mark having scored over track and trip in April. Daily Trader finished just ahead of Unit of Assessment when third at Salisbury recently while Miss Blondell may well reverse latest running here with third-placed Miss Pacific as the former was having her first start of the year. But DIPTYCH was also making her seasonal debut when well beaten at Chelmsford last time and Sir Mark Prescott’s filly is fancied to finish much closer today with an apprentice’s allowance helping her cause.
