In depth
Verdict
ELITE ICON was beaten a length over 1m4f here last month and has won over today’s trip before. He finished ahead of both Fillydelphia and Enemy Of The State on that occasion and Jim Goldie’s charge looks set for a return to winning ways with the remainder hard to recommend. Eyreborn returns to action still looking for a first win in 22 attempts but Frame Rate is less exposed on the Flat and won over hurdles here in March.
