In depth

Verdict

Earcharn has won three times around here and is only 2lb higher than his last winning mark. TY ROCK BRANDY has a course and distance success to his credit and has been running very well on Turf without quite getting there. He finished a length behind Sestriere when the latter was second at Naas last time though is much better drawn. Crystal Dawn is still a maiden and dropping down to the minimum for the first time while Dance Alone has been running poorly despite a slide down the ratings. The three-year-old Sebs Star is yet to win and has a tough draw with an inexperienced pilot on board.
