Lady Pekan, Heavens Walk and Muktasb look the three to concentrate on here and the vote is given to Lady Pekan. The selection put up a cracking effort at Lingfield last time when she finished second behind Salon Prive. She is usually thereabouts in this company and if she can run up to her best she should take plenty of stopping. Heavens Walk is a likeable colt who ran well enough at Folkestone last time when fifth behind Valiant Romeo. However, he showed an improved level of form the last time he raced here so he is certainly one to note in the market on a surface that clearly suits. Muktasb was disappointing last time but he did go close on his last effort over this course and distance and he is another that can't be ruled out. Kiss The Rain would have claims on the pick of her form and she might appeal for each-way players, but Lady Pekan is clearly in good heart and gets the vote.
