In depth

Verdict

Fleeting Freedom is rated 78 but is one of the more exposed and BEST BLUE may improve past her. The latter showed improvement to finish second over track and trip last time and an apprentice’s 5lb allowance helps his cause today. The Jungle Vip went close over at Southwell on his recent debut while Island Court finished closer when third at Wolverhampton. Godolphin’s Winds Of Fire is a likely improver and the newcomer Natch is related to a host of winners and worth noting for the Gosden yard.
