Camelot filly has landed bumpers at Cork and over C&D this summer. Well on top on latter occasion 20 days ago so she looks hard to beat despite conceding weight all round.

Forecasts

Woodland Adventure (8/11), Nelrose (3/1), Arayapearl (4/1), Midnight Pass (9/1), Miss Barfad (33/1), Believeinthemoon (33/1), Opening Dance (50/1), Brooklyn Lullaby (100/1), Spotthestar (200/1), Pixie Rock (200/1)

Gordon Elliott's daughter of Camelot WOODLAND ADVENTURE looked a good prospect when an emphatic winner over C&D last time so is fancied to go 3-3 and defy a 10 lb penalty here. Emma Lavelle's debutante Midnight Pass could emerge as the main danger ahead of Arayapearl and Nelrose.
