oddschecker Verdict
YQUEM was a revelation on her second start for a new yard when winning easily over C&D three weeks ago. That performance was rendered much more explicable when it emerged after the race that the daughter of Wootton Bassett was in foal, and she might be able to go in again from what is a reasonable mid-field draw. Nibras Rainbow has hit a good spell of form in recent weeks and chased home the selection last time. He has an 8lb pull at the weights now. A course winner on fast ground, Morning Approach has dropped down to a good mark and hinted at a revival on her penultimate start.
Prediction: 1st Yquem, 2nd Nibras Rainbow, 3rd Morning Approach
