In depth
Verdict
Of these, Going Native has gone the closest to winning when third at Newcastle last month. But several will likely improve for today’s longer trip including HEATHER LARK, bred for middle-distances and placed over a mile at Newmarket on her debut. Deyaarna was six lengths behind the winner when runner-up at Salisbury but is still preferred to the other Godolphin representative, Falcon Eye, but it would be no surprise to see the likes of Dalileo and Harbour Nights finish much closer in this.
