Tim Easterby has had a winner or two of late so Amethyst Dawn needs a market check, however another chance is given to SEMINAL MOMENT. James Given's filly got bogged down in the mud at Nottingham last time out but she is perhaps better judged on her win at Southwell earlier in July. A mark of 56 should be manageable and she is tentatively selected. Twist Again is one of the more consistent in the race, Veronicas Boy is likely to finish fourth again if we go by form figures alone, whilst Honorable Endeavor's second to Winterbrook King reads as one of the better pieces of form in the race but ultimately he is still an eight-race maiden. Any market move for Full Blue would be interesting given connections, Arlene Phillips hasn't looked like troubling the judge of late, whilst Flannel is now 13lb lower than when he started life in handicaps back in May. Blinkers may spark some sort of revival in Windpfeil however it is the proven stayer Seminal Moment who is taken to prevail.
