In depth
Verdict
Kheley has shown improved form on the Polytrack when last seen in February and could be of interest back on turf but he has yet to show that he as good on grass and preference is for FUTURE GEM, who gets the vote over Dispol Kylie. Paul Midgley's filly ran better at Newcastle last time and she has slipped to a fair mark so has to be considered in a competitive contest. John Quinn's Arriva La Diva has shown improved form of late and has to be respected but may prefer faster ground. Simple Rhythm has been running consistently well recently and should again be thereabouts but preference is for Future Gem. The daughter of Bertolini has won her last two starts including on soft ground at Ayr last time and she looks to have every chance of winning again off a 5lb higher mark today.
