In depth
Verdict
The market may provide the biggest clues with a number of powerful yards represented by some well-bred newcomers. David Loder has made a sensational start to the current campaign so it would be no surprise if Akeydah made a winning start to her career. The daughter of Selkirk makes plenty of appeal on breeding being out of a dual winning mare by Unfuwain so clearly has to be respected while John Gosden's Ella's Wish is a half-sister to the Listed class Foodbroker Fancy so is another to consider in an interesting event. Ed Dunlop has his team in good order after suffering from the virus last season and Many Thanks is another to note while Proxima, who shaped promisingly on her debut at Newbury last month, looks best of those with previous racecourse experience.
