As with the first division of this race, very few of these come into this in good form, but CAPTAIN SEDGWICK is an exception having won at Ffos Las last time. It seems as if she may have turned a corner with that performance, and though she is 6lb higher now she is more lightly-raced than most of these and shouldn't have an issue with the conditions. Love And Be Loved needs to be able to lead to be at her best, and in a race with plenty of pace on looks unlikely to have things here own way, but has been running well recently, while Tally's Son is probably capable of modest amount of further improvement.
