A poor contest rescued only by the presence of SEIXAS. The latter is penalised for a recent course and distance success but scored by four lengths on that occasion and can go in again given the weakness of today’s opposition. Patontheback is less exposed than most and Pollinate may improve on her first outing after wind surgery while the newcomer Swiss Sancerre wouldn’t need to be anything out of the ordinary to get involved.
