Verdict
Most of these look pretty exposed but LADY LEKKI made a winning start at Wetherby in April and returned from a lay-off with a fourth at Beverley last month. She has plenty of scope for improvement over this longer trip and gets the vote ahead of Atalan. The latter won over 2m at Chelmsford in August and has proved best on the all-weather so far while High Intensity makes his debut on Turf after a well beaten third at Southwell. Azamesse was beaten only a head over 1m5f at Ayr recently and should handle the softer going but course and distance winner Dew Pond is 9lb higher for this.
