      In depth

      Verdict

      All can be given a chance in a wide-open contest. Charlie D beat Sufi a neck over today’s trip at Bath last month but the latter re-opposes on better terms. The former had earlier finished behind runner-up Houlton over 2m here while Great Bear also drops down in trip after placing at Kempton. Albanita is preferred to Seaborn as both step up in distance but AUSTRALIS won over a furlong shorter at Chelmsford last month and Roger Varian’s charge is taken to go in again raised only 3lb.
