Verdict
A chance is taken on CASTLE HILL CASSIE , who has done very little wrong so far, and her willingness to scrap for the line is a handy asset. Maid In India is unbeaten so far and has to merit an interest for a place at least. However, this is her toughest assignmne to date and she may have her work cut out in getting the better of the selection. Marseille is another consistent individual and can also make the rest pull out all the stops. Thafeera is anchored by top weight but should also be thereabouts too.
