In depth
Verdict
Both Fromnowon and Nibras Shadow returned losing favourites on their latest starts at Goodwood and Wolverhampton respectively. The latter is fitted with headgear today with the former preferred but SHOOT THE MOON makes most appeal. He found the odds-on favourite too good at Kempton on his reappearance but finished clear of the rest and should make a bold bid. Spinacia returns to 6f on her comeback and Coto Donana is another dropping back down in trip after struggling at Newmarket.
