OSMOSIA is 5lb higher than when beating What's For Tea by just under three lengths at Fontwell and ran a little flat when only fourth there next time. But she's probably more effective over this shorter trip than some of these so gets the nod. Get Home Now, Rita Speak and Fair Breeze are all capable of taking advantage if Chris Gordon's mare fails to fire again but Brunston looks a shadow of his former self and Chilworth Lass isn't really improving.
