Expecting a modest tempo established by Lord Domino who can cross from the outside draw. KIRA (14) gets her chance. Two runs back from a spell have been rock solid, just finding one better on both occasions. She was beaten under a length here second up and should appreciate the rise to 1600m now. Handles wet ground and if they're positive from a wide gate she'll go close. YAM (1) is hard to knock in recent form having won his past three in a row. He proved far too good here last time out on heavy ground which seems to be the key to his form. Up in weight again but should go close once more. QUELLO DORATO (8) is a lightly raced type for the O'Brien yard who won his maiden impressively on wet ground at Sale last start. Has plenty of upside and the 1600m shouldn't pose an issue. OUR LONE STAR (7) was much better last start here and a repeat of that effort has him in the finish. SPEAK (5) resumes and has the ability to run well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kira to win.
