Verdict
Better will have been expected of Between Us but she's been very disappointing so far. Curly Come Home faces a stiff task under top weight while there hasn't been much encouragement in Aleksandar's runs so far this year and it's taking a long time for Kashgar to get the hang of things, though his latest third at Newmarket was a better effort. HUMMINGBIRD sports blinkers for the first time after three runs over a mile in maidens. Her stamina has to be taken on trust over this trip but she arguably has more scope than any of these so gets a tentative vote.
