Verdict

SELECTION was much improved when winning over C&D last month and travelled well through the race when conceding weight all around under a penalty here 7 days later. There could be more to come on just her sixth career start and she's narrowly preferred to class-dropping Queen of Atlantis, who has to be feared if this is run to suit. La Scanderbeide and Bernalda complete the shortlist.

Selection (Ire) silk

Much improved when quickening clear to land a C&D handicap last month and travelled better than most just 7 days on when fifth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (5/1) 27 days ago. Further progress not ruled out on just the sixth start of her career.

Queen Of Atlantis silk

Landed an all-weather hat-trick in 2023/24 season and better than ever when second at Ascot in July. Faced a stiff task and was poorly placed when last in a listed race at Saint-Cloud (9.9f, good) 45 days ago. Makes appeal back in a handicap.

La Scanderbeide (Ire) silk
