Verdict

EVENING RAIN is the only one yet to be alloted an official rating but she looks to have the best piece of recent form. Saeed Bin Suroor's filly went close in a Newbury maiden a fortnight ago and any further progress should see her in the mix. Blue Aegean also represents Godolphin but has gone backwards since winning at Nottingham while both London Life and Spirit Of Xian are others struggling to find their best form. Enlace went close at Newmarket only to disappoint when odds-on last time and Margot Bay will need a big improvement on her maiden win at Leicester.
