      In depth

      Verdict

      Asadjumeirah and If You Dare are recent winners on Tapeta though both are upped in class off higher marks for this. Crimson Sand is another facing a tougher task having gone close over the minimum trip at Chelmsford but MARKS BEAR finished runner-up in this grade over course and distance last time. Gary Moore’s charge had the measure of Fizzy Feet and Soldier's Minute on that occasion and is taken to confirm superiority in the process of going one better.
