Leo De Fury has only raced twice since finishing fifth behind Armory in this last year. The winner's yard is represented by Innisfree, who hasn't run since beaten three lengths by subsequent 2000 Guineas winner Kameko in the Futurity run at Newcastle in 2019. Earlswood's two victories this season have been on heavy ground though he didn't run badly on good going in the Derby here. Reve De Vol started favourite when tackling 1m4f at Roscommon but didn't get the trip in the race won by Layfayette, who won over a mile here in March so has no problems with this trip. VISUALISATION steps out of handicap company where he's been in excellent form and though he prefers more cut in the ground he could be progressive enough to take this. Oodnadatta had smart juvenile form and gets the fillies' allowance.
