KAYLA is taken to defy top-weight here for Stuart Edmunds and Ciaran Gethings. This mare was slightly disappointing at Fontwell last time but seemed progressive prior to that and should be capable of bouncing back here, especially as the slight drop in trip won't do her chances any harm on ground that she should love. It is a fairly open-looking affair, though, and the consistent Three Star General also has a fantastic chance, in addition to Paddy Brennan's mount Mighty Leader .
