Follow My Lead looks the one to follow in the finale with Taminoula and Mythical Charm the most likely dangers. The selection won well last time when beating Underscore and this course and distance winner will be hard to beat if she gets the strong gallop that she needs. Taminoula will give her plenty to think about as she has been running with great credit of late and she again put up a bold show last time to finish second behind Elidore at Chepstow. It will be a surprise if she is not able to make the frame. Mythical Charm has been in good form but she is steadily rising in the weights and she may need some respite from the handicapper before she starts winning again. Beauty of Dreams ran well last time and is another with place claims, but for the the winner we will stick with Follow My Lead.
