Verdict

A tricky contest in which only Lady Shanawell can be confidently dismissed. Both Soloist and Scenesetter have taken a step forward since going handicapping. However, Graham Lee will need to be at his brilliant best in order to steer home the latter if electing to set a scorching early pace. Scheme ticks plenty of boxes over today's new trip and the market could offer the best guide, while the 'old girl' Donnachies Girl is a C&D winner representing an in-form trainer. Nevertheless, the tentative vote goes to the stamina laden filly EARTH AND SKY who was caught flat footed after leading at Yarmouth (1m2f). She should relish this more galloping track.
