FLYING NUN possibly had her stamina stretched on deep ground over a slightly longer trip than this last time and might be worth siding with as she can be made to look well treated on last season's form. The unexposed Copperfasten is interesting now stepping up in trip after wind surgery, while Chloe's Court showed she can be very competitive from this sort of mark last time.
