Verdict
Rafiot won over 1m4f here last time but Ryan Moore partners stablemate Night Eagle, who bids for a hat-trick raised 5lb after scoring at Epsom last time. A host of these are looking to improve on recent placed efforts including Ayr runner-up Alyara and Brighton second Shielded. Graystone was beaten only a head at Beverley while Beowulf placed at Bath and Basic Beauty posted a better effort at Wolverhampton. TRES SPECIALE is the least exposed having finished runner-up in all three outings in novice company and she gets the vote now handicapping.
