In depth
Verdict
It’s interesting to see the three-year-olds Free Chakarte and Intriguing Lady tackling older mares this early in the campaign but SAWPIT SIENNA is probably the form pick on last season’s form and has gone well fresh in the past so gets a tentative vote ahead of Belle Na Bann, already a winner at Fontwell and Newton Abbot this term, and Call Blue. The latter was third here last month after a break while Night Fever and Lady's Present are less exposed than most.
