Tricky. CEUTA was a close-up third over 1400m recently off her current mark but has done most of her winning over 1600m, so a repeat of that performance over this trip could suffice. Consistent TOO LATE MY MATE has a bit to find on that form but should acquit herself competitively. BACK FROM WAR is closely matched with that rival so dangerous to discount with the benefit of her rider's 1,5kg allowance. Last-start winner PALACE DANCER remains competitive under a penalty from gate No 1, as does WARNING SOUND who is unbeaten over track and trip. Lightly raced INTO DANCING isn't taken lightly either.
