Verdict

ALBA LONGA relished the longer trip when running out a ready winner at Windsor last month and, with further progress on the cards, she's preferred to Divina Grace, who made a successful return at Chepstow recently. Great Bedwyn contested a more competitive event than this at York last time and he's likely to give a good account.

  1. ALBA LONGA
  2. DIVINA GRACE (IRE)
  3. SOVEREIGN SPIRIT
