Formscan  - Persuasion was no match for an improver over C&D earlier this month but there wouldn't appear to be anything of that calibre lining up here so he merits respect. However, Steph Hollinshead landed the corresponding event 12 months ago and, with that in mind, a chance can be taken on ALBESEEINGYER. There have been signs of a revival since returning in June, none more so than when third at Newmarket latest, so it is very possible this could be her turn. Lexington Belle and Leadman are just two others to consider.
