Verdict
This probably won't take much winning. Lady Of Yue finished ahead of Saint Thomas here last month but both were well beaten. Aneedh's only victory this year came in a Beverley seller while Devon Drum looks weighted to this hilt. QUENELLE ran her best race so far when only beaten a short-head at Kempton earlier this month. Ed Dunlop's filly has only had five career starts and it will be disappointing if she can't figure prominently in a race like this. Watt Broderick has two ways of running but would be thereabouts if on a going day and he's preferred to Lingfield scorer Topaling.
