The Oaks winner FOREVER TOGETHER will be at very short odds here and can hardly be opposed, though she faces older horses for the first time. She had stable companion Bye Bye Baby eight lengths behind at Epsom while Athena, another from Ballydoyle, was beaten a long way in the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot. Urban Fox was staying on over a mile in the Duke Of Cambridge at Ascot and wouldn't be making her debut over this trip unless thought capable of a big run while Turret Rocks showed her liking for fast going when beating Clear Skies at Gowran last month.
