Verdict
Lubna and stablemate Natural Colour represent Godolphin though neither figured on last year’s respective debuts. But DANCING TO WIN found one too good in both starts in soft going last season and Hugo Palmer’s filly may prove the one to side with headgear applied on her return to action. Timeless Soul has the more recent form with a debut third on fast ground at Haydock but Water Iris returned a beaten favourite for the second time when runner-up at Ayr and Vision Of Victory is another looking to improve on a below par effort.
