Not a strong race in all probability with some backward and largely disappointing performers in opposition and a chance is given to Behra to confirm her debut effort. The TEAMtalk selection was a close third over this trip behind the useful Spinnette on softish going at Newmarket in July and will take plenty of beating if reproducing the same level of form. Alashaan has shown a fair level of form in the context of this and will be suited by this drop in trip after failing to last home over 1m4f last time. In contrast, both Environmentalist and Epitome have shaped as though they will appreciate this stiffer test of stamina while Scent Of Victory has claims if back to his best following a break.
