In depth

Verdict

Colin Keane is on board Fastnet Crown, who he rode to victory at Dundalk last month before finding Group 2 company too strong here last week. William Buick chooses BAY OF HONOUR, the winner of three of his six races, of Charlie Appleby's trio and he was also in the saddle when New Kingdom won at Doncaster in September. Danny Tudhope was on board when Shining Blue scored for Godolphin at Newcastle in June while Ian Williams has booked the in-form Antonio Fresu for course and distance winner Spirit Of Light.
