Verdict
BAYSHORE FREEWAY (NAP) shoulders top weight on her first run since August but could be a bit better than these rivals. She won three times last year, including once here, and has only gone up a pound since her latest third at Ascot. Paul Nicholls does well with his small Flat team so Irish import Meagher's Flag is respected. Little went right for Petrastar at Leicester and better is expected here while Jacbequick wins his fair share and has been hurdling. Hareeq remains unexposed but Given Choice has done all of her winning on the all-weather.
