In depth
Formwatch
Bhutan (IRE) Has claims at the weights but drops back in trip after running mainly over two miles recently and not certain to be suited by it.
Bodfari Signet Respectable third over this trip at Musselburgh recently; more needed here up in class though and likely to find at least one too good.
Great Hopper Out of her depth in this company; impossible to recommend.
Isabella d'Este (IRE) Open to improvement after just four career starts; should benefit from step up in trip but form mostly moderate.
Moreover (IRE) Has looked short of pace over this trip before and unlikely to get a really strong gallop in a field this size.
Sitara Improved performance when upped to this trip on reappearance; looked as though she would improve for the run that day and looks the one to beat.
