This is a very tricky contest and we will take a chance on Impulsivo, with Lillianna and Mythical Charm just two of many dangers. Simon Earle¿s five-year-old returned from a very long holiday to finish a very promising fifth behind Esperance and Lingfield last month. He will no doubt have needed that outing and should strip a lot fitter this time. Mythical Charm returned from a smaller break to finish just over four lengths behind Saucy at Lingfield last time. She is no doubt a much better horse on the turf and looks destined to be involved in the latter stages. Lillianna landed a small race at Lingfield recently, and although her previous turf form is nothing special she should make her presence felt in this company. Shamwari Fire looks best of the remainder, but in a very open affair Impulsivo just gets a narrow vote.
