In depth

Verdict

Kodiac Harbour is penalised for winning over a mile at Lingfield back in February and Daddy's Daughter made a winning start at Kempton last year though struggled in Listed company on her return. Fox Mafia posted a much better effort at Southwell last week and bumper runner-up Trailboss found one too good again at the latter track on his debut on the Flat. Marquisette represents an in-form yard on her introduction but another newcomer in DESERT SON is preferred as he’s a half-brother to useful former stablemate Blushing Rose with an apprentice taking 7lb off his back.
