Verdict
NAIVASHA showed progress at Southwell last time when runner-up to the odds-on Saakhen, who is rated 83. That looks good enough form to come out best in this company. Chuckamental is the most exposed with a placed effort at Wolverhampton his best effort so far but it's hard to recommend any of the others with experience. Aqueous will not have to be anything special to get involved on her debut and the half-sister to the useful Mezzotint is worth considering.
