Verdict

On the face of it this shouldn't take much winning, but at the same time it isn't easy to have confidence that any of the field will produce their optimum effort. Perhaps COMPASS POINT can do that, after two decent efforts last month, and with the fitting of a visor a potential positive. The fly in the ointment could be Topkapi Star, who was producing much better than most of the field this time last year, and despite her form tailing off, she may have a race like this in her. Bristol Missile, Straight Ash and Exotic Escape are others who could get involved.
  1. Compass Point
  2. Topkapi Star
  3. Exotic Escape
