In depth
Verdict
Deauville Prince failed to build on a good effort at Haydock when well beaten at Ayr last time. But George Cinq and Almuheet may make a better fist of things as they drop down a grade, along with RED REFRACTION. The latter struggled in Class 2 company last time but scored by five lengths at Yarmouth earlier and gets another chance today. Verse Of Love and Dutch Art Dealer are recent winners at Chepstow and Kempton respectively but step up in class off higher marks for this.
