Verdict
Eglish won this in 2020, one of five victories on the track, and is on a winnable mark with James Ryan's claim taken into consideration. SONDHEIM was a couple of lengths behind that day but will be 6lb better off and is well in here on his victory over The Cola Brasil at Cork in June so gets the nod. Form Of Praise won from a higher mark here back in March and Adam Caffrey's claim puts her in the picture. Bronze River wasn't exactly prolific in the UK but managed a couple of Polytrack victories though doesn't look particularly well handicapped. Midnight Fire has won three times on Turf and has only had one run here so could be capable of better.
