GRACE'S KISS got going late to finish a close-up third over 1600m last time and, on the evidence of that performance, could be better suited to this extended trip. Class-dropper LADY BLUNT stretches out to this distance for the first time and will be aided by a 1 draw as well as her rider's 1.5kg allowance. Last-start winners ROSY LEMON and HUBERTUS HUNT should remain competitive off their current marks. ALTA CAPITANA showed improvement with blinkers fitted last time and she's another with scope to improve over this distance with the headgear retained. LITTLEMISSSPLENDID warrants respect too.
