8/13
Winner at Haydock in July. 7/4, creditable second of 6 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good) 18 days ago. Remains on a plausible mark and she has to enter calculations.

9/2, third of 5 in handicap at Salisbury (9.9f, soft) 37 days ago. On a good mark judged on peak 2-y-o form, but she's yet to scale the same heights this year.

9/1
Two wins from 5 runs this year. 16/1, good third of 6 in handicap at Brighton (9.9f, good) 12 days ago. Likely to make her presence felt, but may ultimately prove vulnerable to younger legs here.

6/1
13/2, fifth of 7 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good) 36 days ago. Doesn't look especially progressive and she'll probably find one or two too good.

Forecasts

Flower Of Scotland (8/13), Riches And Rubies (11/4), Galah (3/1), Fire Eyes (4/1), Tiki Fire (6/1), Cafe Sydney (9/1)

Verdict

RICHES AND RUBIES has progressed since switched to handicaps and looks capable of defying a penalty following last week's breakthrough success when upped to this trip at Beverley. Flower of Scotland has done little wrong in her 3 starts this year and another bold show is likely. She is clear second choice ahead of Galah, who would be a threat if reproducing something akin to her peak 2-y-o form.

  1. RICHES AND RUBIES (USA)
  2. FLOWER OF SCOTLAND
  3. GALAH
