In depth

Verdict

SOCIAL CITY has been winning on the Polytrack but has placed here before. He bids for a hat-trick and, having scored over 2m at Lingfield last month, this extra distance looks within his compass. Trinity Girl also won over 2m last time and she debuts on the surface but Shine Baby Shine won over 1m6f here recently and looks a bigger threat, despite a 5lb penalty. Tynecastle Park has form at the track but arrives out of sorts while the remainder all debut on the Fibresand.
