2/1
Winner of her first two starts over this trip including by 5L at Musselburgh (good-to-soft) on her penultimate outing. Disappointed at Sandown upped to a Listed contest last time and drops in grade today.

Forecasts

Cape Bunting (2/1), Westerland (9/4), Ventura Knight (4/1), Amazing Alice (7/1), Midnight Wilde (8/1), Milton Road (20/1)

Verdict

With a couple in here who have led in recent runs it may pay to side with WESTERLAND who can put a couple of disappointing efforts behind him with cheekpieces fitted for the first time today. John Gosden's charge is a half-brother to a number of classy performers and can register a second victory on his fifth racecourse appearance. Cape Bunting had looked a potentially useful performer prior to disappointing in a Listed contest last time out and he can return to form by claiming second here with Amazing Alice taken to finish third on her first attempt at this trip.
  1. Westerland
  2. Cape Bunting
  3. Amazing Alice
