In depth

Verdict

In a modest event, Relative Hero gets the call over Enna and Regulated. Relative Hero won a seller and a claimer here last summer and comes into the argument on that basis particularly as she is trying a trip now that could well suit her. Multiple Polish winner Enna is one to watch out for in the betting after a fairly reasonable debut run in this country at Southwell 41 days ago. Fitz The Bill has finished third in his last two races but, much as he stays today's trip, his overall form is very modest. Regulated comes firmly into the reckoning based on his Polytrack win over 10 furlongs in March and even though his overall Turf form leaves something to be desired. He is a pound worse off now for the two-and-a-half lengths he finished in front of Stylish Sunrise over 10 furlongs at Yarmouth last time. In fairness, the latter did not prove she stayed the trip that day and, on breeding, she is not sure too either. Virtually all of the others we have not mentioned are very difficult to build a case for which spins the selection wheel back to Relative Hero.
