A really interesting contest with quite a few that will fancy their chances. Marble Moon has been in good form of late and goes for a five-timer here off a career-high mark and may just find this a step too far. Royal Claret could well be well treated off a mark of 104 if she is ready for this having shown a lot of promise in her last two starts with Django Django looking to be better than his last run. Whitley Neill could well appreciate this trip but SETTIMO MILANESE ran into an improving sort last time and still looks ahead of the handicapper.
