Verdict

SHE'S CAPITANA (6) won well two back before a fair effort over this trip at Ascot last time out. She'll be better for that run and Pike remaining in the saddle is a positive sign. Can lob in a handy position and bounce back to winning ways. KING'S DRAMA (1) is racing in good order this campaign, knocking over the maiden second-up before some strong efforts through his recent runs. ZJP's claim comes in handy and the inside barrier can see him settle a touch closer. Racing well and can put his best foot forward. ANABALLISTIC (3) was a first-up winner last campaign and looks ready to run a bold race judging by his recent trial Belmont. The inside draw should see her close to the speed and the claim of Tsang comes in handy. Can resume on a positive note. SOUND OF SPEED (5) bolted in before a spell and he hasn't lost a yard judging by his recent trial. Keeping him very safe. BILL SELECTS (7) rates well off the first-up effort and is not out of this.
