In depth
Verdict
Coastal Drive faded badly at Doncaster when making the running on going that was probably too soft for him and can do better, but CAMOMILE LAWN finished second in a similar event at Kempton and that probably represents the best form on show here. With further improvement, she can take this competitive event. Strategic ran poorly when making his debut at Windsor last month but is likely to improve on that showing, and has place claims, while Groveman from the in-form Charles Hills stable is the pick of the newcomers. General Zoff may fare better after running green in both outings so far, but Sixties Secret was never involved on her debut and will need to improve dramatically to feature here.
