Sand Fairy gets the nomination here with She's My Outsider and Dhaular Dhar rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair third behind Oonagh Maccool last time out. That form sets the standard in the context of this race and she need only run up to that mark to score. She's My Outsider rates the main danger on her latest second behind Malahem but that form has since been let down and she looks opposable on that basis. Dhaular Dhar is another worthy of respect on his best form but all his best efforts with more cut in the ground and he looks beatable on this faster surface. Compton Court is from a yard in form and was a fair third behind Dove Cottage last time out while Ross Moore has the ability to go close but does not always use it and for the winner we return to the more reliable Sand Fairy.
