Formscan By Shane Redmond - BELIEVED (5) ran a huge race on her handicap debut last time and might just be best in this open looking contest. She ranaway with her maiden over a trip close to this at Dundalk in late May and then finished a close third in the King George V Stakes at Royal Ascot where she wasn't helped by the runner-up edging to his left well inside the final furlong. Both Amadeus Mozart and Nil Bua Gan Dua also went well in Royal Ascot handicaps, with the latter not far off the pace in a Group 3 over a longer trip than this at Newmarket since. It's hard to rule either of them out, and the same might be said of the hat-trick seeking Saga Gaga, a course winner who followed up at Killarney early last week.
