Most of these are in fair form but the two at the head of the weights looks the pair to concentrate upon - and there's little between them as both arrive on the back of a win and are at home on forecast conditions. Minellatillmorning has found form with a vengeance this year and is open to further improvement but FLY DU CHARMIL receives the narrowest of preferences. He's also lightly-raced and has clearly had training issues but he was back to form the last day and hopefully can progress again upped in trip. Dark Invader and Iniesta are consistent and reliable sorts but will have to improve to trouble the aforementioned pair according to the formbook.
