Verdict
Connections will be hoping Rattling Jewel gets a run as he's won three times around here and loves testing ground. Time Stands Still has shot up 10lb after a comfortable victory on soft ground at Cork on Sunday but she's won off a higher mark in the past. She had finished behind Trueba on her previous start on this track and the latter should go well despite an 8lb rise. Eleuthera is in good form and a 3lb rise for scoring over 5f here looks manageable while Conversant has a track and trip victory to his credit on soft ground and his trainer will have him ready after a long break. MIACOMET (NAP) came good in the autumn last year, scoring twice on testing ground including over the course and distance. She's back on a winnable mark and gets the vote.
