Most of these have winning form over the trip with FANTASY QUEEN beating Here's Two a length-and-a-half over course and distance last month. The runner-up is 4lb better off today but that may not be enough to turn the tables given the winner’s stable is still in excellent form. Outback Blue is back in the right grade but it’s a while since he showed any worthwhile form while See The Master hasn’t really built on a second at Salisbury in the spring. Bazwind beat a decent sort at Wolverhampton in February, however, and could figure with the ground still drying out.
