Roger Varian and Silvestre De Sousa have combined for a few notable handicap wins this summer and SHADOW DANCE, a winner at this meeting in 2024, looks to have been plotted up for this. Second choice is Hipop de Loire, who was an eye-catching fifth last year and looks to have had his campaign geared around this race again. Stressfree has a hold-up style which dictates that things need to drop right but he can go close off his mark if they do. Unexposed Majestic Warrior also makes the shortlist.
