The shortlist contains Laurollie, Ushindi, Missie Baileys and Thebestisyettocome, with the vote going to Laurollie. Back on this surface, Laurollie, who is five pounds above the mark from which she won over 12 furlongs here four runs ago, but she is still respected and gets the call. Ushindi stepped up on previous efforts when just touched off at Nottingham last time and could go well, although she is unproven on this surface. Missie Baileys has been knocking at the door from around this mark lately, including over course and distance, so is respected, while Thebestisyettocome suggested he is aptly named after a decent Epsom effort last time. Finally, Komreyev Star holds a shout if taking to the surface, while Sound That Alarm has proven a bit disappointing. Overall, though, once again, the vote goes to Laurollie.
