Verdict
Xyzzy has finished third on both starts to date but was beaten four lengths on each occasion and LAUNCH ON LINE is preferred. She disappointed at Ripon last time but her earlier second on the Polytrack to the progressive Miss Work Of Art is decent form and she'll take the beating here if reproducing that effort. The other three with experience showed nothing on their debuts and the newcomer Bitter Lemon, a half-sister to eight winners, could prove a bigger threat to the selection.
