Verdict

Thebian was third at Yarmouth two weeks ago but the drop back to 6f is not certain to suit. Aristocratic Lady is out of a winning miler and half-sister to middle-distance winners but she gets speed from her sire and ran a couple of fair races over 7f last year. Kingsholm was well supported on his sole start at Windsor a year ago but has changed stables since and may need this. GLORIOUS RIO didn’t quite last home when fourth over 7f at Wolverhampton and could have more joy over this trip, though Musicality and Summit Fever are both worth a market check on debut.
