In depth

Verdict

Soft ground is an unknown to all of these but KAREVA has the best piece of form with a close-up third at Newbury last time and gets the nod. Polly's Gold has plenty to find with the selection on latest running but Double Reflection may prove a bigger threat stepping up in trip. Something was amiss with Ghepardo last time given she was placed on her earlier debut at Bath while Claramara is a half-sister to a Listed winner and preferred to Lope De Loop of the newcomers.
