Verdict
Most of these have questions to answer but Floral Spinner is usually thereabouts and Italian Symphony was well supported at Stratford last month, though that was only a seller. Midnight Sequel won on the Flat in Jersey last month but that is hardly a reliable form guide and Detour Ahead and Dahteste have had plenty of chances. COMBUSTIBLE LADY won a couple of times in 2011 and showed a glimpse of her old form when fifth at Worcester last month - she may well be good enough.
