ARCTIC FLOWER (NAP) was well beaten at Windsor last time but has done all her winning on the Turf course here including a four-timer earlier in the season. Joshua Bryan couldn’t use his allowance in an apprentices’ race the last time she won here but his 5lb claim negates most of a rise in the weights today. Hedging found a 4lb rise beyond him at Chepstow last time having won at the same track before that but Tigerwolf is creeping closer as he slips further down the handicap. Duke Of North won over 7f here back in May and Western Safari may improve now handicapping for the first time.
