Much depends upon whether Champagne Pink can handle her current mark now she is back to the scene of her hat-trick of wind last year - Karl Burke's filly should go well and cannot be discounted. However, there could be mileage to be gain in siding with BOUNDERBY, who is open to plenty more improvement and could be the surprise package of the race. Gealach Ghorm has experience of this course and is another unexposed individual that represents good value to make the frame.
