Verdict
Ding Ding is a course specialist who hasn’t raced off a mark this low in more than four years. She hasn’t performed the last twice but a revival is not out of the question. Clongowes was a stayer on the Flat in Ireland so there is a good chance he’ll enjoy this first try over 3m and the top weight is fitted with cheekpieces today. Corrie Lake placed twice here in November and Minella Away is worth a market check but HENSCHKE has been generally progressive and has more scope than most of these.
