Verdict
Nothing is ruled out in a tricky finale but SKALLYWAG BAY looks the one to beat if reproducing her run at Windsor two weeks ago. Diomed Spirit and Alpine Girl are course and distance winners but the latter has the more recent form, taking a big step forward earlier in the month. Spirit Of Breeze is plummeting down the weights but has yet to show much improvement for it.
