Verdict

The vote goes to POET'S MAGIC, who understandably gave way in the closing stages last time at Epsom where she became embroiled in a battle for the lead. Things may pan out more favourably this time and she could take some pegging back. Star Shield's latest effort at Haydock suggested that his turn is near, but dropping back in trip here may not be ideal and Global Humor is feared most.

  1. POET'S MAGIC
  2. GLOBAL HUMOR (USA)
  3. STAR SHIELD
