CAFE SYDNEY shaped as if back in form when fourth at Wolverhampton last time and looks well worth siding with to build on that given that her mark is now lower than both her C&D wins at the start of the year. Jeddeyd could pose the chief threat if reproducing the level of his latest Wolverhampton second. Sea of Charm should also have a say if seeing out the longer trip.
