The Organist is a real mudlark so quicker conditions today are a worry and she also drops back from 3m under a penalty, though is still preferred to stablemate Robinesse. Sainte Ladylime is improving fast, unbeaten over hurdles and on a four-timer. She steps up several grades but could be up to the task and there are also possibilities about Bantam. She lacks a bit of scope but finished further ahead of Actinpieces at The Festival than Katie Too had at Sandown and also beat Chocca Wocca, though steps into the unknown distance-wise. OMESSA HAS could be the fly in the ointment on her first run for Nicky Henderson. She gets a small weight-for-age allowance and had decent form at this level in France last year. Only beaten 12 lengths in a Grade 3 when last seen, she could go close if fully wound-up.
