Formwatch
Boreas Best form has come with plenty of cut and trip ideal; excellent chance with Frankie teaming up with old boss although poor effort last time is worrying.
Compton Bolter (IRE) Consistent gelding who has acted on a soft surface in the past; decent effort last time out but has never run up to his best at this track.
Sagittarius Unknown Norwegian horse; has won on soft and on heavy but looks Listed class at best.
Flossy Showed little here on Friday and looks slightly out of her depth at this level; loves soft ground and has a big heart.
Nayef (USA) Won on heavy ground as a 2-year-old and has run encouragingly of late; yet to show he definitely stays this trip and could struggle to do so in this ground.
Herodotus Good effort last time over 9f; yet to prove he stays this trip and that he is suited by a soft surface.
Love Everlasting Has been steadily improving all season but will need to improve again to go close in this tricky looking contest.
Snowstorm Ultra-consistent filly who deserves to win a race of this quality; has run below par on previous runs on soft and could struggle to get competitive today.
