THE TIMEFORM VIEW A tight-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for DISTINCTION who looked better than ever when going in at Beverley recently and can defy a 3lb weights rise with any overnight rain a big plus for this C&D scorer. Handily-weighted Orbaan could emerge as the main danger ahead of Garden Oasis and Cosmos Raj.

THE TIMEFORM VIEW Having been much improved since joining Fergal O’Brien (successful on 5 of last 6 starts), QUEEN OF STEEL may well have been better suited by making it more of a test when runner-up over shorter at Ffos Las 8 days ago. The return to this C&D rates a deﬁnite plus and she’s a big player with Warren Fentiman taking oﬀ a very handy 5lb. 3-y-os New York Minute and Jedhi Knight both retain untapped potential over marathon trips and may emerge as the chief threats.
