SOLSTALLA couldn't match the Flat speed of Jelly Monger at Fontwell 12 days ago but meets nothing of that one's calibre here and should open her account. Angel Face has been tackling longer trips but her recent form looks solid and she shouldn't be far away again. Miss Beatrice has won a bumper but may need more time and Presenting Lucina looks very one paced. Cosette should find a race over hurdles when the ground turns soft as she has won over 2m on the Flat. She is preferred to stablemate Honour Promise.
