Simon Pearce' filly completed a course-and-distance double on her most recent outing and she may have been worth more than the winning margin suggests on that occasion. With just a 6lb higher rating to contend with, she can complete the hat-trick. Copper Knight and Brazen Bolt are others to consider. Veteran Copper Knight seeks a hat-trick and an incredible eighth course and distance win (from 30 runs) and will prove a popular choice. He's got soild enough claims but is taken on with a couple at the other end of the experience scale. FORAGER is also on a hat-trick bid having landed a double with CD win on fast ground last time taking another small step forward and can find a bit more yet. He gets the verdict ahead of Acrisius who needs to bounce back from a couple of below par efforts (did too much out wide in the Epsom Dash and was drawn on the wrong side when last of 22 over CD). He had been just touched off on season comeback prior to those and a much improved effort is expected.
