Verdict

It's hard to ignore the claims of WISPER, who made a winning return to action over track and trip last month and is just 3lb higher. With Rossa Ryan back in the plate, she could complete a double. Fireblade finished a fair fourth in a warmer event at Pontefract in April and commands plenty of respect, while Spioradalta is a player based on his triumph at Ripon two starts ago.

Top Tip: Wisper (6)
Watch out for: Fireblade (5)

Last year's winner WISPER loves it here and can follow-up both that win and her success last time out by scoring again. The two most significant dangers could be Fireblade who is back to a more suitable trip, though further still wouldn't have harmed, and Claymore who ran respectably on his return from a campaign at Meydan.
