In depth

Verdict

Margaret Beaufort bids for a hat-trick having beaten SECRET CONTACT less than a length over track and trip three days ago. But the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms and can reverse running. Fox Flame finished behind the selection when third at Lingfield earlier and steps up in trip while there should be more to come from Stelios over today’s distance and he looks best of the rest.
