In depth

Verdict

TRINITY GIRL, a dual course and distance winner, was conceding Wynter Wildes 11lb when narrowly beaten here last month and will be 8lb better off with her rider's claim taken into account. Scampi and Sarsons Risk arrive on hat-tricks with the former having beaten Wynter Wildes just under a length at Doncaster when conceding a stone. Collateral form just points to the selection though Sarsons Risk is improving fast and is just 4lb higher than his victory over the trip at Newmarket. He also holds True Courage on an earlier run at Leicester. Frankie was on board when Postmark won one of these races at Lingfield and also when a close third over 1m2f here though his mount has yet to prove he stays this far.
