Illandrane is expected to do much better in this company after unplaced efforts at Newmarket and Goodwood, while Eshoog gets headgear applied for the first-time and has the past form to figure. Mawjoodah's best efforts at Kempton give her a chance, but this is tougher than the maiden seller at Hamilton that The Fiery Cross finished second in last month. Galloping Minister should finish closer and Strong Man is worth noting but a tentative vote goes to fellow newcomer FANCOURT, a half-sister to sprinter Methaaly who has won five times at this track.
