Thrown in at the deep end on her debut before contesting another higher grade of race last time, NUVEM DE OORT can make it third-time lucky in these calmer waters. Slackline appeals as the main threat, while Samarina heads the remainder.

SAINT BARTH sets a useful standard having finished second in a stakes contest last time out. The six-year-old's latest success came in allowance company back in April, and he ought to take all the beating now eased into a claimer. Del Camina and Skyfleet are feared most.

This will not take much winning, and if KAD KITERIA can find a little more progress then a maiden triumph looks a distinct possibility. Lalaloopsy and Rosy Court are others to consider.

MADONNA would have been a popular winner when scoring by two and a half lengths recently, and a similar display can see the four-year-old repeat the dose today. Aladim drops in grade and is an obvious threat, while Lambert must also enter calculations.

Lamarca continues to run well in defeat and must enter calculations along with Olavo Bilac, who recorded a narrow C&D triumph recently. However, preference is for PLENTY OF HOPE.
