In depth

Verdict

Dutugamunu came up short when favourite at Lingfield but an apprentice’s allowance helps his cause today and he’s not out of this. CATCH MY BREATH drops back down in trip today and having won under Laura Pearson over a mile at Lingfield earlier, he gets another chance off his current mark. Hundred Isles may figure making his handicap debut while Glenn Coco is fitted with additional headgear and the returning Mujid slips further down the weights.
