Nonrunner
Depressed and Tapa have earned top-weight in this poor contest and should go close but we will take a chance with Look Of Eagles. Paul Cole's filly landed a Brighton maiden last month beating Cape Unknown. That runner up has since finished second in a handicap off a mark of 64. So the form is not the best but it is solid enough. Her own handicap debut was a decent effort, finishing a close up fifth behind Jolie and as she is lightly raced there should be improvement to come. Depressed was very impressive when landing a Lingfield handicap in April and has since performed with credit on the turf in France. Meanwhile Tapa comes into the argument on her Folkestone victory over Auwitesweet heart. Moon Bird and Bens Georgie can also be given a chance in a pretty open contest, but Look Of Eagles has more scope for improvement than most of these and is taken to score.
