This looks pretty tight with representatives of the more powerful yards competing. Respect Me disappointed last time but his earlier fourth at Sandown gives him a shout while William Buick's presence on She's Late suggests she has stronger claims than Phiz. Shwaiman has every chance on his recent placed efforts at Goodwood and Doncaster as he makes his all-weather debut but a speculative vote goes the way of ASTONISHING. Third when sent off favourite on her reappearance at Newbury, the Galileo filly will relish today's longer trip and can open her account.
