In depth

Verdict

UK raiders have a fine record in this with the aptly-named LADY IN FRANCE their only representative this year. Karl Burke’s Listed winner will need to improve further but won a decent handicap over the minimum tip at York last time and should have the measure of the other filly Air De Valse. A Group 3 winner over 6f, Wooded has been racing in Group 1 company recently but attempts the minimum trip for the first time. Batwan beat Tour To Paris over track and trip in May but the latter took his revenge in a Group 2 sprint at Deauville later in the same month
