Older horses G'daay and Fangorn look up against it facing a trio of three-year-olds who have all been in decent form lately. Only narrowly beaten twice since winning a maiden handicap at Carlisle, BAILEYS LIBERTY looks the pick of the weights and Ryan Moore has been booked. Mistrix has been threatening to get her head back in front so can’t be ignored while first-time cheekpieces are expected to bring about some improvement in Al Ameen.
