In depth

Verdict

Paradise Boy had Maiden Navigator back in fourth when scoring with plenty in hand over 1m4f at Lingfield. But he carries a penalty over this shorter trip and COLONY QUEEN can take advantage. James Tate’s filly has only found one too good in both starts now, including over course and distance on her debut, and looks set to open her account. Oliver Hardy has had wind surgery since last in action at Newmarket and may improve past the more-exposed Global Style while the newcomers Mi Manchi and Fields Of Dreams are related to winners on the all-weather.
