In depth
Verdict
Yertle ended last term in style with victories over this trip at Folkestone and Lingfield and is still fairly treated but may just need this outing following a near ten-month break. Keep Ikis had Best Port behind when the pair clashed at Beverley last term and is 14lb better off but the latter was badly hampered on that occcasion and has improved since so may reverse the form on his favoured fast ground.
