Verdict
FOUNTAINS BLOSSOM has already defied a penalty over this course and distance and Rachel Green can steer her to a third triumph despite giving 10lb to her rivals. None of the others with experience has shown much so far so the danger may come from newcomers Dusky Legend, Popular Opinion and Via Volupta, who all hail from stables who get plenty of winners in bumpers.
