Clitheroe has considerably the best form on offer here. Her fifth in the Prestige Stakes last year reads extremely well in the context of this race, and she could have finished a lot closer but for greenness.
Noya looks to be the main danger to the selection and she has a lot to find.
The selection should be head and shoulders clear of these, she should prove mighty tough to beat.

In a competitive, trappy affair, it might pay to side with something at slightly bigger odds here.
Lionel has been knocking on the door of late and could get his head in front at the third time of asking, his latest third to Natural World, looks solid form.
His novice run last year was also stacked full of potential. In a *messy* contest, Lionel could well be the answer at a nice enough price.

A very well bred Ballydoyle filly, Emily Dickinson looks set to enhance her Oaks claims, and she should stamp her class on a lesser field here.
She got off the mark at the third time of asking last time out at Naas, and she did very well to win.
She was short of room on several occasions and still looked green in the final couple of furlongs, but ran out a ready winner.
This trip and track should suit and she's regally bred, Emily Dickinson should be very tough to beat.

At a nice enough price, Pearl Glory could prove to be some value here, with some question marks hanging over some of the fillies towards the top of the market. Pearl Glory won her first two starts, by a nose, and a head, and just missed out on a G3 on only her third start.
We can draw a line through her final start last year as she missed the break.
She looks superb value, and her form is up there with some of the best on offer.
