In depth
Verdict
Diva Kareem never looked like catching the winner when third at Kempton on her debut but looks a likely improver along with Lingfield fourth Decora. Both can figure if handling the underfoot conditions but Candid has more to find though still looks best of the others with racecourse experience. Krishmaya makes little appeal on breeding but fellow newcomer SOVEREIGN BEAUTY is a half-sister to seven winners including recent Listed winner Maid In India and a chance is taken Clive Cox’ filly proves good enough to make a winning start
