Verdict

Alphabetical arrives in cracking form and will need to build on that again in this better race, but that is far from ruled out. However, STAG HORN looked as though this trip would suit when scoring last time and he is taken to underline his class. Sly Minx can't be ruled out, even if it was a weak enough race that she won easily at Catterick, while Table Mountain represents a team that could have induced improvement during her break.
  1. Stag Horn
  2. Alphabetical
  3. Sly Minx
