In depth

Verdict

NIGHT CASTLE is penalised having opened his account over 7f at Newcastle. The Godolphin charge romped home by five lengths on that occasion and this extra distance should hold no fears for the half-brother of the smart miler Heavy Metal. Frankie Dettori partners Sallab, who showed ability last year but hasn’t raced since September, while Wind Storm is a half-sister to a German 1000 Guineas winner and the newcomer makes more appeal than the remainder with racecourse experience.
