Even under a 7lb penalty, there's no getting away how well MARTILOO won last time out at Ayr, and though this may be a deeper race there's every chance the extra weight won't be enough to stop her from winning again with trip and ground both looking ideal. Of the others the class-dropping Petrou and the quirky but talented Katachenko, look the most likely dangers to the selection.
