Last year's winner, Journey, won this contest last year and is likely to go well again but she may struggle to get the better of BATEEL this time around on softer ground. The latter was particularly impressive last time out, beating Journey by two-and-a-half lengths and she looked well on top at the line. The Juliet Rose may get an easy time on the front end and has shown how dangerous she can be with an easy lead. She's likely to ensure there's a strong pace on and may hang on for a place.
