Nicolas Chauvin has been a beaten favourite in all three starts to date and is likely to be a warm order here though he looks vulnerable. DRY OL'PARTY made her debut at Taunton in April and though not showing a great deal is likely to do much better with that under her belt and is given the nod. Up Four It probably found the ground too lively at Fontwell last month and could do with some rain while Borguy hasn't shown much to date. The newcomer Patavinus is one to keep an eye on in the market in what looks a very moderate contest.
