Verdict

CHAOS CONTROL looked like winning easily over the track and trip a fortnight ago but idled in front and Holy Divine finished strongly into second. The runner-up found 7f too short next time and looks the main threat again. Ile De Circe was making her nursery and track debut when staying on into second over 7f last month so should get competitive while New Star produced a couple of good runs at the Curragh in August and makes his debut on the surface.
