MAJESTE is the only one of these in any kind of form having completed a double over 1m1f on soft ground before a reasonable run over an extra quarter-mile on quicker going at Hamilton. He's only 3lb higher than his last victory and can return to winning ways. Ventura Royal hasn't run for almost a year but her only victory to date came on ground with plenty of give and she's had wind surgery. Zarkavon is 0-27 and though not beaten far in recent races they have all been on Tapeta. Whatwouldyouknow wasn't far behind Glacial Fox, who runs in the previous race, here in April but then ran poorly on softer going on a return visit last month.
