In depth
Verdict
A big field but it’s easy to narrow down. Kilmington Rose is surely better than she showed when joint favourite at Exeter. Global Harmony has already placed at Perth and Warwick but does look a little one-paced. Starvoski won her only start in a point but MIDNIGHT CALLISTO was only headed on the run-in when third at Plumpton and will have learned plenty from that. White Hart Lady is another likely improver while a switch to hurdles will suit Merry Berry, who didn’t have the pace to win a bumper.
