Konstantin is the only one with winning form this year but he's struggled off higher marks since scoring at Leicester in April. El Maachi will need to improve again after being raised 3lb for finishing second at Salisbury but is capable of doing so, though Full Shilling looks to be treading water off her current mark. SASKIA'S DREAM posted a better effort when third in a more competitive race at Warwick last time. She looks to have slipped to a winning mark at last and Jane Chapple-Hyam's filly gets the vote.
