In depth
Verdict
Mount Mogan, Ajrad and Purple Poppy are among four previous course and distance winners but the latter, second over a mile at Kempton last month, has a wide draw. Embarked finally won a race at Wolverhampton three weeks ago but has to give 3lb to DULCET SPIRIT, who was successful at Chepstow last month and scored over track and trip in January off today’s mark. Musical Mystery has shown nothing so far on the all-weather.
