This trip will stretch the stamina of most of these but Stiff Upper Lip wasn't stopping over a mile at Salisbury last time and has to go on the short-list, though will have to reverse that form with Rioja Day. Orla's Rainbow could be interesting in first-time blinkers but Heliconia looks a very hard ride. Myzamour won over 1m1f at Wolverhampton when Sir Mark Prescott's filly was back in fifth while Missing Agent won over 7f at Yarmouth before getting outpaced back over 6f last time. The winners have dried up a little for Hughie Morrison but FELIX FABULLA could reverse the trend as he showed a lot more when upped in trip at Epsom last time and has a middle-distance pedigree.
