Arrives bidding for a hat-trick and has looked highly progressive in her three starts for this outfit. Won with a bit in hand last time and should go well again.

5/1
Two-time C&D winner and very well-handicapped at present. Has run well in defeat on his last couple of starts and has to be a leading player again here.

Just one win from 13 starts on turf. Returned with a fine effort at the Curragh in June but not in the same form from her revised mark in two starts since.

12/1
Has won once on AW but yet to win in nine turf starts. Hard to see him breaking that record in a race as competitive as this and needs first-time blinkers to bring about improvement.

5/1
C&D winner and on a very fair mark if he can find his form again but he's been unplaced in all six of his outings this year and others arrive in better form.

9/4
Has not won since his debut but went very close here last time out when only narrowly denied. Could be well-handicapped if he produces a reproduction of that effort.

Forecasts

Focus Of Attention (9/4), T For Tango (9/4), Ducky Mallon (5/1), Captain Power (5/1), Flawlessly (10/1), Gottardo (12/1)

Verdict

CAPTAIN POWER is well-handicapped and in good form of late. His course and distance record may give him the edge of the progressive filly Focus Of Attention. T For Tango produced a better effort last time and couldn't be ruled out.
  1. Captain Power
  2. Focus Of Attention
  3. T For Tango
