Verdict

Divina Grace won on fast ground at Newmarket last summer and was third over this trip at Wolverhampton later but she may need this. DOG FOX won on his reappearance at Yarmouth and was even more impressive off 4lb higher at Haydock. He has a penalty to carry here but the hat-trick beckons. Yellow Star, Star Of Sussex and In The Trenches are all less exposed than Mirabello Bay.
