    In depth

    Verdict

    Martinas Delight is worth another try at this longer trip having won her last two starts over 1m2f including at this track last time. Xinbama remains in fine form having won at Salisbury recently while Arizona John beat Brigadoon easily enough at Beverley in April and has made the frame off higher marks since. Love Marmalade ran well in better company last time, but the speculative vote in a wide-open handicap goes to course and distance winner MISTER FIZZ, whose comeback fourth at York suggests he can win again off his current mark.
