In depth

Verdict

Next Stop has only raced at Kempton so far but is 13lb higher than April's victory. REAL JAZZ makes more appeal as she ran well for second at Chepstow on her return to action. Sir Mark Prescott's filly will be sharper today and can open her account. Archie's Advice should have done better at Hamilton last week and Porthos Du Vallon has failed to figure off higher marks since winning at the same track last month.
