In depth

Verdict

Quarry Beach just failed to the late surge of Crystal Casque at Sandown last week but has become expensive to follow. Voltaic has also proved frustrating and Majestic Mac ran poorly at Brighton. Society Guest is inconsistent and is tried in cheekpieces here but Oloroso has claims and Bear Force One is the least exposed having got off the mark in a Kempton maiden last month. SONG OF THE ISLES easily beat Quarry Beach at Salisbury and a 7lb turnaround in the weights, less her rider’s claim, may not be enough to reverse placings.
