Verdict
This looks the harder of the two divisions and several can be given a chance of sorts. Monksford took a while to lose his maiden tag on turf and probably isn't the easiest of rides, but he does have his fair share of ability and if taking to this surface could go well. Mai Tai is effective here and has won for Samantha Beddoes, she, along with the first time blinkered Bahamian Heir, should go well without quite being good enough to win. The consistent maiden My Valentine is another who is tried in blinkers for the first time, and if he stays this far wouldn't be without a chance. Interstice has no easy task off a 12lbs higher mark than when winning here last week, but he is an improving sort and could well still be ahead of the Handicapper. He is the choice to complete the hat-trick.
