A desperate seller here but something has to win and the principals look to be Muncaster Castle, Beaumont Boy and Danalova and the tentative vote is given to Beaumont Boy. The selection was a good second behind Onattop last time out. This represents a drop in class and she need only run up to that form to win this with a little in hand. Muncaster Castle rates the main danger as he was a fair sixth in a better race behind Keidas last time. However his best form is on a faster surface and he is taken on with this in mind. Danalova is another that could go well on his best form but he has had plenty of chances of late without taking one and he is opposed with this in mind. Of the remainder Ocean of Champagne could improve for the fitting of first time blinkers while Xaar Too Busy will go on the ground but has his own ideas about the game and in a race where stakes should be kept to the minimum for the winner we return to Beaumont Boy.
