Verdict
DESERT SKIES caught the eye staying on for third at Nottingham on her debut. The Godolphin filly won't need to improve much on that to open her account in this. Discussiontofollow showed some progress when dropped back to 6f at Catterick last time though Enfijaar may improve past him with a debut third at Ffos Las under her belt. Tarquin looks best of the remainder having returned from a couple of years off the track with a fifth at Newcastle and Triple Chocolate makes most appeal of the newcomers.
