In depth
Verdict
Dragon Glory debuts for a new yard and is fitted with cheekpieces after winning at Lingfield and RAJWAAN is preferred. The latter placed behind the progressive Destiny’s Spirt at Haydock on his handicap debut and there looks more to come. Doctor Mozart has been in the mix at Catterick recently and finished ahead of Kodi Dancer before the latter finished runner-up over track and trip while Italian Lover should be noted handicapping for the first time.
