Sunny Peace, Totally Focussed and Monaadema are the trio to look at here with Totally Focussed taken to get reward for some near misses. Monaadema has just had the one outing, staying on well to be second at Redcar, although having no chance with the winner. The form is hard to weigh up but that was an encouraging debut and she can go well again. Sunny Peace followed up a good second at Goodwood with a fine effort at Bath. He travelled well that day and looked all over the winner before fading close home. Back in trip here he looks sure to go well. Totally Focussed has reserved his best efforts for the all-weather, but has run creditably on three occasions and was in that position at Kempton last time. He is reliable and consistent and Totally Focussed can go one better here.
