Verdict

It's entirely possible RAINBOW DREAMER's handicap mark is on the lenient side. He ran well last time but got caught too far back to be seen to best effect; it would be no surprise to see him make amends for that run with Ryan Moore in the saddle and he's less exposed than a lot of his rivals. Guard of Honour has proved a different prospect on turf than the AW and he should go well while the sole mare in the line-up, Star Rider, is proven over this trip and will be more at home in this sphere than she was over hurdles. Oceane wouldn't be without a chance but he's hard to recommend in his current form.
  1. Rainbow Dreamer
  2. Guard Of Honour
  3. Star Rider
