Miss Sophisticat looks more competitively treated these days but her sole start on polytrack is off putting so we won't chance her on this occasion and instead turn to SHAM SHEER, who was game in victory last time; Molly The Witch could be a danger off bottom weight. Having made every yard last time the pick just held on to secure a first career victory. Trainer Luca Cumani has decider to up him in trip for this run which on previous form is not an obviously positive move but if the penny has dropped with him he should be the one they are all aiming for. Molly The Witch proved he current well being with victory in a seller last time. Her mark looks fair on her return to this sphere so off bottom weight should be feared. Millharbour is now on a career low mark so is entitled for an improved run and Chantilly Pearl is another for the shortlist off a competitive rating. The theme of competitive handicaps continue and Sham Sheer is picked after much deliberation.
