    In depth

    Verdict

    Reeceltic has gained both career victories here including over the trip in March. Go Fox has changed yards after an easy victory in a Catterick claimer over the trip and BIRD FOR LIFE almost made it eight career victories when beaten a short-head at Wolverhampton. Mark Usher's mare has dropped to a fair mark and has a course and distance victory to her credit so gets the nod with Vin Rouge possibly best of the remainder in a low-class opener.
