Verdict
This looks wide-open but ALZANTI is the least exposed. She made a winning start at Kempton in November and should have improved in the interim. Subtle Knife has a shout on an earlier placed effort at York and Pretty Bubbles was having only her second start on Turf when winning at Newbury in May. She's only been raised 4lb but Frangipanni carries a penalty for her recent win at Chepstow. Nimble Kimble should be thereabouts once again and Annina had bits of form last year that may see her figure if back to her best.
