Formscan - Each of these have something to prove, but it looks best to stick with ADELAIDE BAY, who was only beaten a length into fourth when sent off as favourite over a mile at Newcastle. The drop to 7f is a positive move on that evidence, and it's noteworthy that Billy Loughnane keeps the faith. Rose Dawes was aboard Shades Of May for both of his victories earlier in the year, including over C&D, and is one to bear in mind. Another that could give a good account of themselves is King Sharja, who hinted at a return to form at Beverley.
