In depth

Verdict

Auenwirbel’s only win since 2018 came in a seller. Just Go For It is well treated on last year’s form but hasn’t shown much this season and Steady The Ship has also become disappointing. IMMORTAL FAME must have a cracking chance of a third win in four starts if handling the soft ground and he gets the nod ahead of Danzini, who just failed to overhaul Novus Aditus, who runs in the first division, at Taunton last month.
