In depth

Verdict

ATOMIC LADY showed plenty of pace in the soft going over 6f at Ripon but found one too good. She can open her account back over today’s minimum trip. Phinow showed early pace at Bath before fading but He's A Gentleman looks a bigger threat having debuted in a tougher contest at Ascot. Hello Jumbo is a half-brother to five winners including the Listed sprinter Major Jumbo and is a newcomer to note.
