In depth
Verdict
Warden Bond and Silly Billy were both well beaten last time having won at this track on their penultimate starts. Pat's Legacy ended a two-year losing run at Brighton but doesn't appeal off a 5lb higher mark today while Testa Rossa still appears to be in the handicapper's grip. Birdy Boy posted a better effort on his latest outing, but it could pay to stick with ICY BLUE given Richard Whitaker's charge went very close off today's mark last week having scored over track and trip before that.
