Too Posh To Share is the one to be on, with New Wish and Friedhelmo a couple of live dangers. Too Posh To Share has been runner-up on each of her last two starts, including over the course-and-distance last time out. Ryan Cummings gets on well with the mare, and his 8lb claim will come in very handy as she bids to go one better. New Wish is nearly a stone better off with the selection now from when they met here at the start of the month, but has 22-lengths to make up, and that is surely too much. Kind Sir has plenty of weight to carry, but any support should be heeded, as it should for Freedom Flying, as both stables know the time of day. Friedhelmo is also well held on form behind the form pick, and you would struggle to say anything kind about the rest, so Too Posh Too Share has obvious claims and makes most appeal.
