      Verdict

      Ming Dynasty has been absent since August and hasn’t won on the Flat in almost five years, though did win twice over fences last year. Jockey bookings suggest Quiana is preferred to stablemate Jumping Cats but CONTINGENCY FEE got back to winning ways at Yarmouth last month and gets on well with Grace McEntee. The three-year-old Captain Square looks best of the rest.
