In depth

Verdict

A couple of these stand out from the rest. Ravenscar showed ability when runner-up at Redcar on her debut and should be in the mix once again but FESTINA is just preferred. The latter caught the eye making up late ground for fourth on this surface at Wolverhampton on her introduction and Sir Mark Prescott’s filly should make a bold bid with normal progress. Fortamour may prove best of the rest with experience while Arthur Shelby is a brother to a couple of winning sprinters.
