In depth

Verdict

Shining Aitch has been running well in amateur races while Semper Augustus recorded his earlier success over a mile here and has yet to race over this far. But ANGELS ROC has gone close over today’s trip the last twice including at Epsom last time and Jim Boyle’s charge may finally open his account in this. New Heights finished closer at Bath last week while Pink Jazz has a good strike rate on the all-weather but has yet to win on Turf.
