Behra, a half-sister to amongst others useful chaser Behrajan, sets a fair standard here and gets the TEAMtalk vote. Third on her debut at Newmarket last month, the daughter of Grand Lodge can be expected to improve for that and should take all the beating. The main danger should be David Elsworth's Sunday's Well, who was outclassed in the Ribblesdale at Ascot last time, should appreciate the drop in class. Riding arrangements suggest that La Paz is the better of the two John Gosden-trained runners. There is little to recommend any of the others.
