In depth
Verdict
Sulis Minerva was slightly disappointing when only sixth over 6f last time but had finished ahead of subsequent winner Clear Praise before that. She's not easily dismissed but DRAWNFROMTHEPAST makes more appeal. Jamie Osborne's charge has been in fine form on the all-weather winning three times in plating company this year and has the beating of Haadeeth on that form, but he also landed a handicap off a 10lb higher mark at Bath last summer and can make the most of today's return to the turf. Triple Dream is not badly handicapped on his best form on this surface either and he has the beating of Scarlet Rocks, Wreningham and Black Baccara, who was due to run at Wolverhampton yesterday, on his Polytrack form.
