In depth

Verdict

Sir Mark Prescott’s three-year-olds are generally worth following once on a roll and REVOLVER should complete the hat-trick after bloodless victories at Pontefract and Redcar. Single has been pretty consistent but this will be the first time she’s encountered ground this quick. Yarmouth third Selsey Sizzler is preferred for forecast purposes, therefore, with Soldier On Parade needing to improve for the step up in trip.
