Verdict

Igider still has plenty to prove in this grade while Aussie Andre is best on the all-weather. Steppe Daughter steps up in trip and has no form on going this soft while all of Richard of Yorke's runs so far have been on good ground or quicker. BARREESH never saw daylight when attempting to complete the hat-trick in a competitive Goodwood handicap at the start of last month. He's better than that and, having had a few weeks off, can pick up the winning thread again under Frankie. Faithful Mount is in good form and looks a danger, however, as does Quest For Wonder, while Keep In Line won on good to soft at Windsor two runs ago.
