Sebastian's Wish has every chance having finished ahead of Glasgon when runner-up here last time. The latter went on to score over track and trip when ANGEL IN THE SNOW was beaten less than a length in third. That was the latter’s first start since January so it’s reasonable to assume she will be sharper here and go close again in a tight contest. Miss Tree finished further behind Glasgon last time and several of the remainder are unproven over the longer trip including Taopix and Galilee Chapel.
