In depth

Verdict

Dusk Till Dawn looked very one-paced when fourth at Uttoxeter last month. Flash Crash and Net Work Rouge have a bit to prove now while The Lizard King makes his debut under Rules. Tilinisi was well beaten on the only other occasion he was tried beyond 2m and will need to prove his stamina. MORNING SYMPHONY stayed on strongly when beaten less than a length by Tangolan over 2m5f at Market Rasen. The winner has franked the form since and Warren Greatrex' s lightly-raced gelding should go one better here.
