This looks between the less exposed types. Funky Cold Medina ran well on her handicap bow at Yarmouth and better is expected on only her second start of the year. Petrify made the frame on his handicap debut at Leicester and should also be capable of better but NAUTILUS may just edge this. He finished ahead of Giantstepsahead on the Polytrack before finding only one too good over track and trip a week ago and John Gosden's charge gets the nod. Laconicos has a bit to find with the selection on latest running but Super Cookie has a shout back over this longer trip.
