Cathedral will be fancied again with Frankie on board as he's been sent off at short odds in his last two starts. He's still a maiden, however, and now sports blinkers and this is also his first run on fast ground. Fellow three-year-old Malih may have a couple of pounds too much while course specialist Rock Anthem hasn't been at his best so far this year, though is well treated if he rediscovers his best. HIP HIP HOORAY doesn't hold any secrets from the handicapper but she's an honest sort and isn't badly treated at present. She was second over a 1m2f at Epsom last time and it would be no surprise if she went one better here with question marks hanging over most of her rivals.
