    Relatively uncompetitive this year and I think Banoffee will win. She was quite impressive in the Cheshire Oaks and that form has been boosted by Elik, who was behind her that day, going on to win a listed race at Goodwood last week.

    Secret Gesture will be second, Liber Nauticus third.

    I'd suggest Liber Nauticus or Moth although her odds are too short to make her worth a bet.
