In depth
Verdict
Billy Mill won over 7f at Newcastle with DIONYSIAN back in fifth. But the latter failed to get a clear run and returns to his winning distance with Luke Cotton’s 5lb allowance in his favour. Hat Toss went close at Windsor but Tosen Wish was no match for the winner when second at Newcastle and Baltimore Boy is preferred back in this lower grade. Cabinet Of Clowns beat Hartswood when scoring at Chepstow two runs ago and is another to consider.
