In depth
Verdict
This looks to be the stronger of the two divisions and the vote just goes to Pesquera, who gets the verdict over Entertaining and Holly Springs. The last mentioned showed promise on her debut but John Gosden's filly failed to build on that at Newbury last time and is probably best watched today. Sir Michael Stoute's Miss Tolerance has to be respected under Kieren Fallon but she showed little sign of ability on her debut and is hard to recommend. Richard Hannon's Dart Along has shown a similar level of form in his two start so far and is entitled to be thereabouts although a bigger threat may come from Entertaining. Henry Candy has his string in good form at present and the daughter of Halling has shown improvement with each run. Granted further improvement she would look to be the main danger to Pesquera. Jeremy Noseda could not have his team in better form at present and having run well when third behind Hanseatic League over course and distance last time, Pesquera holds solid claims from a good draw.
