In depth

Verdict

THE JEAN GENIE has been thereabouts since landing a double back in April and looks the one most likely to run her race dropping back down in class. Mayfair Spirit also recorded a double during the summer, though that was over a mile, but Amjaady, Boutonniere and Kaser having all been well beaten since winning. Bollihope looks a bigger threat off his current mark returning to 1m2f but the struggling Grand Inquisitor will need to improve for a change of headgear.
