In depth
Verdict
GARZONI is the least exposed in the field and posted an improved effort at Windsor on her latest start. Her half-sister scored over today's trip on the all-weather and Sir Mark Prescott's filly can get off the mark on her handicap debut. Mount Abora went close in a seller here last time and this is no tougher and Ishikawa is another who could figure off his current mark. Jordaura popped-up at a big price over C&D recently and remains on a winning mark despite a 5lb rise while Wolverhampton winner Always Eager is not easily ruled out.
