In depth
Verdict
BAHARAH is the pick with In the Light and Shabiba as the alternatives. Baharah has proved a little frustrating though not through her own making. A mark of 109 has made life difficult from a handicapping perspective but at listed level, she makes plenty of appeal and having won two and landed two runners-up slots on artificial surfaces in the past, she is tough to get away from. In The Light and Shabiba renew rivalries having met at Sandown previously. Given a positive ride last time at Newmarket, the former may be able to reverse form here. Harvest Queen was entitled to have needed a first run back so the run in the Sun Chariot can be happily glossed over. Fragrancy might like life around here as back runners can often prosper in true run races. Desert Chill has plenty to do on official figures but Godolphin are not in the habit of making frivolous entries for their inmates. Souirire is here following victory in a listed race in Sweden. This looks tougher. Baharah looks the best.
