SULAFAH finished a lot closer when runner-up at Newmarket last month and any further progress should see Roger Varian’s filly go one better. Seyadah showed a modicum of improvement stepped up to a mile at Kempton last time but Nancy Hart’s fourth over today’s trip at York looks stronger form. Isabel's On It should do better after last month’s modest debut at HQ and is preferred to Indian Blessing and Judy Woods. Of the newcomers, €220,000 purchase Al Mayda has the excellent Josephine Gordon’s 3lb allowance in her favour, while Godolphin filly Crystal River is a half-sister to a winner.
