Edification didn't get the run of the race over a mile here last week and a similar effort over this longer trip would see him in contention. FEISTY KATERINA (NAP) has never won but showed some potential on Turf before changing stables and running her best race to date last month when beaten a short-head by Mcguigan with Lady Kimberley behind. She's up 4lb but looks the one to beat on that form. Fiannaiocht is also a maiden but was having only her second start on the surface when placed behind Duke Of Waspington three weeks ago so should have some improvement in her. Brokopondo has won three times around here but is struggling for form.
