Verdict

Kevin Philippart de Foy has made a promising start to his training career. He sends another ex-French trained horse out here in EPHEMERAL who has run creditably on a synthetic surface in France. Oisin Murphy is a noticeable booking and she can gain a first win. Melgate Majeure ran well last time and looks the biggest danger with Hollie Doyle taking over in the plate. Prosili can't be ruled out.
