Based on his maiden form Streets Apart could be well handicapped for this lady riders race and Dancing Lyra must have a chance from an in-form stable but we make preference for MONFILS MONFILS. The seven-year-old is back below his last winning mark for the first time since taking an apprentices' race at Doncaster in March. Having won his only other career victory over this trip in similar conditions he could have things just falling in his favour to score again. Steets Apart has yet to test his stamina over this trip and it is not entirely clear whether he'll stay. If he does he looks well handicapped on the pick of his form in maidens. Dancing Lyra took advantaged of being really leniently treated last time out and despite a nine pounds mark rise still looks off a winnable rating. Dramatic Solo is not always easy to get right but if reproducing his run of two starts ago he'll hold every chance. There are a number of others who could make the shortlist but Monfils Monfils looks value.
