Verdict
Fabianski is having a first run on Turf and carries a penalty for her victory at Wolverhampton in February. HUMBOLT CURRENT was very disappointing at Newbury in May but was eased considerably once his chance had gone. He’s been gelded since and cheekpieces replace blinkers here so we’ll give him another chance. Copilot was easy to back at Salisbury last month but showed promise and can only improve. Until Again is sprint-bred so the trip is a concern, though she’s worth a market check.
