Molinari and Water's Edge were engaged in the same Sandown race yesterday but both would have strong claims if diverted here. Eternal Prince is the least exposed and almost certainly still improving but JUNOESQUE seems to like it here and she ran well on her reappearance at Newmarket when finishing ahead of the disappointing Rotherwick. Willa and Rajguru are others to consider and Mr Top Hat ended a long losing run at Chepstow last month. Verify looks the pick of the remainder ahead of fellow course winner Limelighter.
