SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL (NAP) is 1-13 but top rated here and her overall form in group company gives her the edge. She dropped back to this trip in a Group 3 at Newmarket last time and wasn't far behind the odds-on Fanny Logan. Snapraeceps was a long way behind that winner at Yarmouth in September though that was on fast going and she did much better on soft ground at Gowran last time. Winiata completed a handicap double before a good effort behind Lancaster House at Listowel and though Camphor needs to step up she looks capable of doing so on this ground. Kiss For A Jewel has won two handicaps in good style and deserves this step-up in grade as does the unbeaten Loveisthehigherlaw, who stayed on strongly over slightly shorter at Killarney.
