        In depth

        Verdict

        Big Bopper, a beaten favourite last time, will be far happier over this trip, while Pie High looks to have plenty to do off this mark. Eastern Hope, blinkered for the first time, is the interesting one. A not disgraced fourth in what looked a fair maiden for Beverley, has received a boost when the third in that event Pablo, went on to be a wide margin winner at Goodwood. He could turn out to be a well handicapped horse.
