Three-year-olds don't have a particularly good record in this but Seeharn is a speedy filly who didn't stay the trip in the Irish 1000 Guineas and will be more at home here. Six Of Hearts is a cracking handicapper who has run quite well in this grade in the past though he was well beaten a year ago. He's closely matched with the consistent Duff but can take care of Edward Lynam's veteran again and he also had Snaefell well beaten when landing a handicap here last time. UK raider THE CHEKA generally prefers some give but it was fast ground when he landed a Group 3 at Haydock in May and he looks capable of adding to his three-win tally over this specialist trip.
