BABY JOSR could be hard to keep out of the frame and is preferred to Azharia and Sultans Way. Night Lily has run well over course and distance and could figure but the key to this contest may be the course and distance event that was run on the 7th August. Baby Josr was just beaten a neck on that occasion with Sultans Way a nose and three quarters back in fourth with Azharia one place and half a length further behind. Ian Wood's charge is taken to come out on top again as he appears to be ideally suited by this surface although Sultans Way may be invigorated by the fitting of blinkers whilst Azharia may benefit from being partnered by Ryan Moore. Florentia hails from a respected yard but has something to prove on this surface and has returned a beaten favourite on three occasions. Many may be prepared to give her another chance but we'll be siding with Baby Josr.
