Verdict
ROUND ACRE improved to finish runner-up at Leicester last time and beat a couple of subsequent winners in the process. She’s preferred to Abbie Power and Better Half on that form. Mambo Beauty failed to threaten in three starts in Ireland and debuts for a new yard but the newcomer Hala Hala Athmani may prove the biggest threat. A half-sister to three pattern-race winners including high-class sprinter and former stablemate Hello Youmzain, any strong support could prove significant.
