Best to be cautious with juveniles tackling 1m2f and it would not surprise to see any of the lowly-weighted contingent improve significantly for this severe test. However, we'll stick with proven form in the shape of MAASTRICHT despite a 6lb penalty for a battling Beverley success over a mile eight days ago. He was staying on dourly on that testing track and looks a confirmed stayer in the making. Glee arguably has form in better contests, posting respectable finishes in Newmarket nurseries the last twice. She'll go well if lasting out. Dual winner, Snowed In, hasn't travelled further than seven furlongs before and Enjoying makes greater appeal off the bottom perch in first-time blinkers, having been noted staying on late on a couple of occasions over shorter trips.
