In depth
Verdict
Sporting Hero is penalised for winning at Lingfield though the runner-up has subsequently won. But EXQUISITELY was beaten less than a length when third at Nottingham last time and she may come out best on these terms. Grandad Bob finished in front of Chattel Village in soft going at Beverley but the latter was placed before that while Noble Title drops down in distance after a better effort at Redcar.
