    Verdict

    Jewaar has solid claims on the pick of her form but is proving to be expensive to follow and a safer option looks to be Indication, who gets the vote ahead of Moon Valley. The last mentioned showed promise on her debut in a similar contest at Ascot last month and is entitled to plenty of respect on that evidence but Indication ran arguably a better race at Newbury on her debut and looks as though this longer trip will bring about the necessary improvement. Luca Cumani's Pentatonic makes plenty of appeal on pedigree and could be anything but lack of a previous run is of concern, while Dawaleeb has shown only a modicum of ability and is hard to recommend. Indication ran a race full of promise first time out though and she gets the vote to go one better here.
