In depth
Verdict
NAAFER went close to catching Grizzel at Sandown on her introduction. The latter has subsequently won again so the form looks solid enough and William Haggas’ filly can open her account. Lexington Sky should be in the mix again having placed at Newmarket recently and looks the main danger with the remainder making their racecourse debuts. Of those, Driver's Girl is a half-sister to a winner and Surfina and Turanga Leela have entries in valuable sales races.
