In depth
Verdict
Iconic Knight won over 7f at Chepstow last time while Portelet Bay’s earlier double came on the Turf. Storm Melody scored over the minimum trip at Chelmsford recently while Zamjar placed over today’s trip on the Polytrack at Lingfield. FREEDOM FLYER recorded his only win so far over track and trip and having tumbled 13lb down the weights this year, Ruth Carr’s charge gets another chance having failed to get a clear run here last time. Another Dawn is worth a second glance handicapping for the first time.
