Miss Cunning is the only course winner in the line-up but that was over 6f and she was well beaten over a mile next time. Johan The Great came with a late run to snatch a place in a similar race a fortnight ago though ADAMARIS, who finished best of all in second, is on the upgrade so can confirm the form and take this. Slade Runner was staying on strongly over 7f here last week so has to be respected while a first-time visor could bring about improvement in Distant Vista, who should also be suited by stepping up in trip.
