Sakura made an encouraging start over 6f at Naas though looked tapped for pace early in the race so it's a surprise to see her dropping back to the minimum. She's conceding weight all round and Ascot Dreamer ran well in the race won by Gossamer Wings at Navan when Rita Levi, who runs in the opener, was second and that form should hold up. The remainder with experience have plenty to find so one of the newcomers could take this. Queen Mia is related to numerous winners though mostly over much further so it's GLAMOROUS POWER, a very speedily-bred daughter of Slade Power and a 5f Group 3 winner, who is handed a speculative vote.
