A largely exposed bunch of maidens so stakes should probably be kept to a minimum. Dream Magic may not be the most resolute but is still preferred to stable companion Joys Delight. The returning Nargiza is worth a market check and so is Mark Johnson’s Grey Diamond. Lord Kitten makes more appeal than Life Of Luxury but ART’S DESIRE has been pretty consistent and, with Richard Kingscote taking over the reins from an apprentice, Ed Walker’s filly gets the nod.
