In depth

Verdict

This won't take much winning and former pointer Polo The Mumm opened his account under Rules at Worcester last month. Worcester third I'llhavealook was successful on soft ground over course and distance in March. Madam Be is getting closer while Keychain would have a chance if fully wound-up. MOUNT VESUVIUS has not won over a trip this far but Paddy Brennan gave him a confident ride to score over 2m1f here 10 days ago and the eight-year-old could have too much speed for these if Tom O'Brien can conserve his stamina.
