Jaaryah appeared to handle soft ground well enough at Chester and is just beginning to edge down the weights. Certral should also handle conditions and ran well over this trip at York in May but Sula Two has only won a couple of amateurs' races this year and needs to improve again to complete the hat-trick. Cape Rising has been knocking on the door while Maven is holding her form well but the three-year-olds get plenty of weight from their elders in this and it will be a surprise if one of the classic generation doesn't come out on top. SEQUENCE is a half-sister to the brilliant Sinndar and stayer Sindapour so can only improve now she's stepped up to a 1m4f and, after a better effort at Newcastle last time, can get off the mark today. Varnish is heading in the right direction and should also appreciate the step up in distance while Fleeting Image won over 1m4f at Haydock last month. Leicester third Require looks a tricky ride however.
