Verdict
Aqwaam won on soft ground at last year’s Galway Festival and will be all the better for a run at Chelmsford. LADY LABELLE hasn’t run since June last year but she ran the smart Stay Alert to less than a length on her reappearance last season and is less exposed than Later Darling, who is 0-8 on Turf. Vega Sicilia was a disappointing favourite at Lingfield last month but Kensington is interesting having only his fourth career start and his first on this surface.
