Verdict
Last month's winning bumper Simply Rouge makes his debut under Flat rules and Marmion is preferred having finished second at Thirsk recently with Al Nehayy back in fourth. Monasada ran well on her debut at Wolverhampton and the winner has since landed a handicap but another filly in DESTALINK looks to have the stronger form. She was only fourth to Gretchen at Newmarket three weeks ago but a repeat would be good enough to open her account in this company so Lady Cecil's charge gets the vote.
