Madame St Clair has every chance at the weights but is unproven over this far and AIAAM AL WAFA is preferred. Her only win to date came over 1m2f but she was runner-up over today's trip at Wolverhampton in April and she gets the token vote. Red Hermes may be capable of better stepping up in trip on only her fifth start but has plenty to find on today's terms while it's difficult to make a serious case for any of the remainder who have all been in dreadful form.
