Verdict
Go Fox won over hurdles last year but his only win on the Flat came almost three years ago. Whitwell would have a chance on his best form but Lawmans Blis is now 0-12. Cusack has won twice on the all-weather but his form on Turf has left much to be desired. HELLENISTA didn’t make her debut until July last year and progressed with experience. She got off the mark at Ripon in August and can record a second career victory on her reappearance ahead of Mr McCall and Atacama Desert.
