Verdict
Persian Queen's last run on heavy ground produced an easy victory at Cork so she has to be respected. Theophilos is a massive 15lb higher than when scoring at Tipperary in April but YOKKELL is very consistent at this sort of level. She's only won once but produced another good run in a much better race at the Curragh last time and can double her winning tally. Qasbaz has been raised 9lb for a convincing success on soft ground at Navan but it will be a surprise if he's not concerned in the finish.
