We said2nd of 11, beaten 2 at 15/2
LADY ROXBY 16/1
3 of these want to be on the pace, which usually means they go too quick and it falls to something coming from behind.
LADY ROXBY at 16/1, Michael Herrington and Jack Mitchell, is the one I would side with. He went close off this sort of rating, beaten 0.25L off 79 on 25 July 2025, has the right side of the draw and comes from a yard in good heart at 23%.
The one worry is weakened last time.
The dangers are SHALLOW at 13/2 (a course winner) and VEIL OF CLOUDS at 19/10 (won with plenty in hand).
