There are undulations for the first three quarters of a mile of the Odyssey straight, the course then runs downhill for a furlong before climbing to the line. As with the Rowley Mile course, ability to see out the trip thoroughly is essential. TIMEFORM VIEW: Draw: Against Mid Pace Information: Insufficient Data CALM SKIES showed plenty of ability when hitting the frame in a C&D maiden 2 weeks ago, just lacking the pace late on against a highly promising newcomer. That experience 1 2 ARDBRACCAN (IRE) (14) 96 ought not to have been wasted on her and she can come out on top. Newcomer 82 2 9-0 | 57.2kg Ephrata demands a close look, whilst Ardbraccan and Eagle Path complete the shortlist.

As bow at Wolverhampton. In the firing line for a long way in the Sandringham and with the Rowley Mile course, ability to see out the trip thoroughly is essential. she can remain competitive. Draw: Against Mid Pace Information: Strong 12 12 AL SAARIYAH (IRE) (43) (BF) 96 6221-52 3 8-7 | 54.0kg 1 4 STAR OF EMARAATY (IRE) (22) (CD) 90 Simon & Ed Crisford Silvestre De Sousa 14157-590 3 9-7 | 60.3kg Didn’t need to improve on her strong novice form to open account in a 6f John & Thady Gosden Frankie Dettori nursery at Yarmouth in September. Not seen to best effect on return at Lingfield Useful filly who wasn’t discredited when ninth of 11 to Mother Earth in 1000 and latest second wasn’t a return to form. Guineas.

TIMEFORM VIEW: 3 7 SAMOOT (IRE) (22) (D, BF) 96 KINGMANIA improved another chunk when completing the hat-trick at Doncaster last 33-1152 3 9-0 | 57.2kg month, and with her limit not yet known, she may well shrug off a 6 lb rise. Riknnah also chases a 4-timer and is feared, along with Samoot. Sir Michael Stoute William Buick Resumed with 7f wins at Wolverhampton and Salisbury and handled 1m very TIMEFORM 1-2-3: well when runner-up in the Sandringham, no chance with the winner but nicely clear of the rest. 3 lb rise very fair. 1.
