ADIEUX, a daughter of Dylan Thomas, ran a pair of nice races from this mark last month and wouldn't need any dramatic improvement to get her head in front in a race such as this. She's not likely to get it easily however with Heartful, sporting a visor for the first time, deemed capable of better than he showed at Cork last month and Escondida ready to take a key role if none the worse for a strong recent reappearance run at the Curragh. Gentil J may also do much better than in the Lincolnshire and isn't one to rule out quickly.
