In depth
Verdict
None of these inspire confidence and My Brother Mike has to race off a 10lb higher mark back on the all-weather having placed on the Turf the last twice. Swinging Eddie has also placed recently but has yet to win anywhere in 15 starts and the latter comment also applies to Ifton. Lingfield winner Famous Dynasty was well beaten off a higher mark last time and a token vote goes to CITTA D’ORO on his second outing after wind surgery and now back on a winning mark having landed a double here last year.
