Front-running Niagara has form in better class events than this but his effectiveness in softer ground will need to be taken on trust. Kyda finished second to Adiemus on heavy ground two runs ago and if she is able to reproduce that level of form, she should be capable of taking a hand in the finish. Ace of Trumps has won previously in similar conditions but the trainer has yet to hit form.
