Verdict

Qualify and Toogoodtobetrue represent Aidan O'Brien, who has won this six times in the past 11 years. The former has never raced on ground other than fast so her ability to act on this surface has to be taken on trust though she's shown plenty of quality and is a Group 3 winner. The latter scored over 6f at the Curragh on good going and has plenty of potential while Kevin Ryan wouldn't be sending the Listed winner Calypso Beat here without good reason and she won't mind the conditions. STEIP AMACH came here to land a Group 3 in October and though well beaten on her reappearance at the Curragh on Sunday she found the heavy ground too much for her. With that under her belt, she can make her fitness advantage count.
