Simon Walker teams up with Windsor scorer Arctic Sea but further rain could put a dampener on the combination’s chances. Isomer has slipped down the weights but his best form on Turf is over shorter trips. My Boy Sepoy won off a 3lb lower mark over course and distance in May but has not distinguished himself in two starts since and there are stamina concerns surrounding Steeve. FRENCH MIX looks the safest option as she was only headed close home under Hannah Welch in the Ladies’ Derby at Epsom last time so a drop back in distance should suit.
