In depth
Verdict
A wide open contest in which many have chances on there best form but a chance is taken on Raybaan who is a course and distance winner will go on the ground and who was a fair fourth over an inadequate trip last time out behind Star Protector. Madeline Basset rates the main danger she was not beaten far behind Dream Magic last time out this looks less competitive and she will love the ground and extra furlong. Sky Quest is another to consider he is a course and distance winner will go on the ground and ran a fair race at York last time out when fourth but he has never won off a mark this high. Robbie Can Can is from a yard in top form and must go well but he may be seen to even better effect over a longer trip. Sarin is another to consider but is bred to be better with some cut in the ground.
