Verdict

Paul Nicholls saddled the winner of this race in 2021 and can repeat the does with BIRDS OF PREY, who pulled nicely clear of the rest when chasing home a progressive type here last month and this drop back in trip looks a good move. Mascat was disappointing on his latest start in this sphere, but he has since proven his well-being on the Flat and is feared off a potentially handy mark, while Samba Dancer is third choice ahead of Ayr of Elegance.
