This is no better than the previous division with only a token vote going to recent Kempton third CARPENTIER. Abnaa placed over track and trip earlier in the year and can race off a lower mark back on this surface while Headora went close here in March and returns for the first time since. Thowq slides further down the weights and Ephemeral may prove best of the rest dropping down in distance.
