In depth
Verdict
Consensus De Vega will likely improve now handicapping but needs to having won a maiden here last month. Newbury winner DREAM SHOW makes more appeal dropping down in class having faced a tough task at Newmarket last time. Neptune Legend has plenty to find with the selection but better is expected from Honky Tonk Man in this lower grade on his return from a lay-off. Reversion is upped in class and gets a change of headgear while 6f winner Matty Too will need to step up on previous attempts at today’s longer trip.
