SPIDERS STAR is in great form and she can win again at the main expense of Pseudonym and No Rules. The selection has gone up 12lbs for her recent win at Beverley but she scored with plenty in hand and her penalty might not be enough to stop her completing a hat-trick of wins. She again has trip and ground to suit and she looks to be on an upward curve. Pseudonym is another who won last time out but he was all-out to beat Zuwaar and he has a penalty to contend with this afternoon. No Rules got going too late at Kempton last time and he may benefit from a longer trip in time. Royal Premier is back on a fair mark and the form of his run at Nottingham last month when he finished fourth has been franked by the horse that finished third who has since been out and won. An open race to get proceedings underway but Spiders Star looks the one to beat.
