In depth
Verdict
Rich Again is penalised for last week’s success over track and trip but should still confirm running with fourth-placed Desert Ace. The latter had earlier finished ahead of Fredricka when scoring at Ripon and Bahamian Heights was ahead of First Bombardment when third at Chelmsford but refused to race last time. Eleuthera posted a better effort at Wolverhampton recently and Emjayem went close at Goodwood in June but a purely speculative vote goes to ROCKING RUDOLPH on his return to action and handicap debut as he raced in much better company last year having won his maiden on the all-weather at Southwell before that.
