Wesley Ward has won this three times in the last 10 years and it would be no surprise if either Kimari or Anna's Fast proved good enough having both won their respective debuts on the Dirt track at Keeneland in good style. Final Song was also impressive when scoring by five lengths in soft ground over course and distance on her introduction and is preferred to the Charlie Appleby duo Divine Spirit and Theory Of Time but a fourth Godolphin filly in ICKWORTH makes most appeal. Willie McCreery’s charge showed a smart turn of foot to land a Listed contest at the Curragh and the Irish challenger should make a bold bid having beaten an odds-on favourite representing Aidan O’Brien. The latter seeks revenge with Navan maiden winner Tango in this while Flippa The Strippa and Good Vibes are both Listed winners scoring at Sandown and York respectively with the latter beating Mighty Spirit. Lambeth Walk and Raffle Prize try their luck in this higher grade with Frankie Dettori taking over the reins on the latter.
