Supreme Serenade looks the best option here and can get the better of Star De Mohaison and Nykel. The Phillip Hobbs trained six-year-old was a progressive type over hurdles last season and was strongly fancied to win the Coral Cup at the festival. She has always had the look of a chaser and she can win this before going on to better things. Star De Mohaison has a rating of 123 over hurdles following some smart performances last season. The stable invariably do well with this type of performer and he has to be considered a big danger. Alan King's French recruit was unbeaten during the spring and should be noted for any market move. Irish raider Mocharamor may do best of the others, but Supreme Serenade looks the class act here and gets our vote.
