Murhib's victory here in March was over 2m so this looks on the short side. Turner Girl had been running well on Turf before scoring at Newcastle but she's 4lb higher and was ridden by a 5lb claimer on that occasion. ROBUSTO scored over the track and trip last month and has pulled much too hard in his subsequent starts on Turf. Shane Kelly is back on board and can steer him to another victory. Winning hurdler Sword Beach looks high enough in the weights while Royal Athena hasn't made the expected progress from scoring over the track and trip.
