Formwatch
Late Night Out Appreciates this course and distance and loves today's going; looks sure to be fit for first run and should take all the beating.
Free Rider Seems to be running into form and has conditions to suit; first time visor a slightly worrying sign.
Winning Venture Closely matched with Free Rider but has shaped as though he prefers sprint distances, breeding confirms this and may be best watched.
May Ball Front runner who looks sure to make a bold bid with conditions to suit; very much a leading contender.
Irina (IRE) Has ability but unlikely to be up to winning at this level.
