In depth
Verdict
Ben Akram, Damascus Steel and SWATOW TYPHOON have all won between the flags but the fact that Jason Maguire has hung around to take the ride on the latter looks a tip in itself and the six-year-old can cap a good day for the McCain team. Frankie's Promise is possibly the pick of those with previous bumper experience but that's not saying much and Chris Grant's newcomer Swingbridge is probably a better long-term prospect being a son of Milan.
