Verdict
Refinement has looked impressive in her two runs so far and gets the call here over Kingsbay and Ruby Too. The Jonjo O'Neill-trained selection has romped home at Bangor and Ascot and, although winners with penalties have poor records in these types of contests, she might defy that stat. She has also won on the soft. Kingsbay won well at Folkestone on her debut and hails from a good yard, while Ruby Too came good on the all-weather at Lingfield last time after showing promise at Wincanton on her debut. Watch the betting with regard to Nicky Henderson's debutante Candello, while Penneyrose Bay looks the best for the rest.
