Verdict
Quemonda has won twice over track and trip and went close again at Bath a fortnight ago when caught at the line. She makes more appeal than King Athelstan, who returns from a lay-off having won over 1m4f here back in December, but SEA OF MARMOON (NAP) gets the vote. Mark Johnston’s filly found only one too good in a tougher race at Newmarket last time and William Buick is on board once again. Both Good Time Charlie and Pax Britannica step up in trip and may improve as a consequence.
