The betting suggested OCTAVE would go close on her recent debut and she duly landed the odds at Lingfield. Ryan Moore’s presence suggests she’s done well in the short time since and Mark Johnston’s filly is taken to defy a penalty. Salam Zayed is likely to have improved since last month’s debut at Newbury and could go well while several newcomers are worth noting. As a brother to a Listed winner, Khaadem cost a hefty 750,000gns and Spirit Warning is related to five winners including the very smart Side Glance. Calyx is out of a Group 3 winner in France representing the Gosden yard though Frankie Dettori goes with the €220,000 purchase Chance.
