In depth
Verdict
Port Noir and URTZI won over track and trip last time and both have been raised 8lb. But the latter is less exposed and another bold bid is expected. Puchita placed here in May but all five of her all-weather victories so far came at Southwell while Divine Connection remains 7lb higher than when winning over track and trip back in March. Frow is a more recent winner at Chelmsford but has been beaten since.
