French Press has been placed over 7f on more than one occasion but EDGED OUT makes more appeal. She never looked like winning when third in a better race over the minimum trip last time but won't have to improve much to come out best in this. Others open to improvement include Koharu and Princess Sheila, though Little Indian has shown plenty of early pace in a couple of starts over 6f and could figure over this slightly shorter trip. The remainder are harder to fancy.
