Verdict
Almalekiah went close over 7f at Dundalk last time and is a leading contender on that form while Alhaarth Beauty has claims on her earlier second at Folkestone. Golden Pursuit is less exposed and showed some promise when third on his debut over track and trip but the vote goes to RED TULIP. She would have finished closer than fifth over C&D on her debut with a clear run and should have improved for the experience. Gold Beau has bits of form that could see him make the frame and looks best of the remainder.
