EIGHTDAYSAWEEK looks to stand out here and he is nominated to get the better of Kochanski and Wahan. Sylvester Kirk's filly looked like one to stay on the right side of when she won over this course and distance last time out. She remains unexposed so there should be more to come and she looks to have rock solid claims of following up. Kochanski won well at Wolverhampton earlier in the year but she has not really built on that and she was again a little disappointing at Nottingham last time out. Wahan showed improved form to chase home Good Buy Dubai at Kempton, but he was doing his best work at the finish so this drop in trip could be a negative. Taste The Wine ran well last time and this extra furlong should suit so he is not out of this. But it will take a good one to beat Eightdaysaweek who is a confident pick
