FLORENCE THOMPSON has yet to taste success following 23 attempts, but she's on an attractive mark and dropping to the minimum trip here looks a good move judged on her recent effort over 7f at Cork. She is worth chancing in what looks a wide-open race. Ever Rock shaped better than the bare result last time and is one of several others to consider, along with last-time-out winners Harry's Hill and Fine Distraction. Aloysius Lilius, Amazing Emma and Livingston Range are also on the shortlist.
