A back to form Iniesta could figure in a race like this and Primogeniture is also interesting but ARQALINA can continue the good form of the Venetia Williams stable under Lucy Turner. Lightly raced, her latest third at Hereford was a much better effort and Jimmy Bell could frank that form in the previous race. Kastani Beach isn’t getting any younger but is another with claims in a modest finale along with Cafe Au Lait.
