Forecasts

Verdict

DUBKA may have been a little disappointing last time out but her effort at Haydock in soft ground in June suggests she may require a softer surface to be seen at her best. Diamonds Pour Moi hasn't been seen for a while but she has to be a live contender if she's ready to go after an absence. Godolphin runner's Natural Scenery and Endless Time both hold each-way claims while Melodic Motion couldn't be in better form and gets the vote of retained rider Oisin Murphy.
  1. Dubka
  2. Diamonds Pour Moi
  3. Natural Scenery
