In depth
Verdict
Abnaa is penalised for winning here a week ago while RING OF GOLD had the measure of Got No Dollars when winning over today’s trip at Kempton. He found the progressive Zealot too good here last time but gets another chance in this. Old News is back on a winning mark and Final Frontier is usually in the mix without winning while Custard The Dragon can’t be ignored at this venue. Bobby Dassler has bits of form in Ireland and debuts for a new yard.
