    Verdict

    A runner-up on her last couple of outings, CAPE SPIRIT looks to have a good chance of finally opening her account. Andrew Balding’s filly arrives in much better form than last year’s winner King Of Paradise but Zamoyski looks a bigger threat with last month’s comeback run at Epsom under his belt. Merchant Of Medici won here three times last year and is not easily dismissed now back on a winning mark.
