Forecasts

It's Two O Clock (4/9), Rachel Ruysch (9/2), Optional Necessity (8/1), Patrice's Wish (9/1), Camacho Dancer (14/1), Cats Approval (33/1), Khwarizmi (40/1)

Those with previous experience have achieved little so far so the debutants won't need to be anything special to win this. The market will be informative about the newcomers but on paper the duo of IT'S TWO O CLOCK and Rachel Ruysch make the most appeal. Ger Lyons has had a fine year and his gelding gets the nod. The booking of Pat Smullen would suggest Rachel Ruysch is expected to go well also. Of those with form Optional Necessity would appear the best with this surface likely more suitable than heavy ground on turf.
