Going - Good, good to yielding in places (Yielding to Soft at R3). Overcast and showery

Formscan By Tom Weekes - JAN BRUEGHEL won impressively on his debut over today's course-and-distance last month, is a well-bred brother to Irish Derby winner Sovereign and has many big-race entries. The form of that maiden success is far from outstanding and he started a largely unsupported 7/2 shot, but won in the manner of a potentially high-class type and should progress with racing. Bolster has progressed very well in handicaps recently and while he is the top adjusted-rated runner, was previously well beaten in his sole stakes start. Wendla defeated the subsequent Irish 1,000 Guineas-fourth to win a Group 3 last month and faces a slightly stiffer task today, as she also steps up to this distance for the first time.
