Loch Garbh has had plenty of chances and was well beaten last time but Shuruwaat has shown promise on both starts though she may do better over further. TRADITIONAL ART is bred for the Flat and made a pleasing debut behind Aupcharlie over the C&D in March. His trainer does well in this sphere and this can prove within his capabilities. Paul Nolan's Jayeffkay, a half-brother to two winning bumpers, is a newcomer to keep an eye on in the betting as is Cill Airne, who is related to several winners on the Flat.
