Verdict

The vote goes to BLANQUITA, who clearly copes very well with these conditions and she was runner-up in a better race than this off this mark at Haydock recently. Blue Sign, Northern Exposure and Ground Force shaped well last time so are feared most, though all 3 have yet to race on testing ground.

2	Resumed progress dropped back to this trip when runner-up at Haydock (heavy) 10 days ago. That looked a much better race than this so she could be the answer off the same mark. 1st Pick 2 Blanquita Jockey: Sean Levey Trainer: Dylan Cunha J: Sean Levey T: Dylan Cunha	100	-	-	-	16%	11/2

3	Posted fair effort in the Albany at Royal Ascot on second start. Seemed to take a while to get over that but she was back on track when second of 13 here (6f) on nursery bow 3 weeks ago, finishing with a flourish after a slow start. Should stay but ground is an unknown. 2nd Pick 3 Blue Sign Jockey: Dylan Hogan Trainer: Ismail Mohammed & Jose Santos J: Dylan Hogan T: Ismail Mohammed & Jose Santos	95	-	-	-	12%	15/2

1	Left his first 2 runs behind switched to turf when close third in maiden at Catterick (good, 80/1) 9 days ago. Came clear of the rest that day and makes more appeal than most on nursery bow given his unexposed profile. 3rd Pick 1 Northern Exposure Jockey: Finley Marsh Trainer: Patrick Owens J: Finley Marsh T: Patrick Owens	95	-	-	-	10%	9/1
