Ainne and Chasing Diamonds are coming off much different absences but both should be considered after showing improved ability on their last start. Compass Point missed the break when failing to land a gamble and it will be interesting to see if the money comes again with extra test of stamina likely to help. Since moving from Ireland CASCELLA showed improvement when finding just one too good last time, finishing nicely clear of the third and gets the verdict.
