Recent placed efforts over track and trip point to ELYSEE STAR coming out best in a weak contest. She finished well ahead of Reshaan when third here last time and the winner has subsequently gone in again. Sea Shack was still beaten a long way when placed over a mile here but Crazy Spin won over the same distance at this venue back in May. Lady Carduros posted her best effort so far in first-time cheekpieces at Chelmsford on her latest start while Al Batal failed to win in 20 outings when trained in Ireland and has switched yards.
