      In depth

      Verdict

      The hat-trick seeking Primrose Valley edges this at the weights but the return to the minimum trip may not be ideal and SQUATS makes more appeal with a recent outing at Chelmsford under his belt. The dual 5f winner needs to reverse latest running with the winner Merdon Castle, Lightscameraction and Rita's Boy but may well do so and he also has the beating of Miss Mullberry on last year's form at Ayr. Ivor's Rebel continued his good progress when making all for an easy win over track and trip last time and looks a real threat with any further improvement.
