In depth
Verdict
Nakakande won in the French Provinces in April and has faced some stiff tasks since but, after nine runs already, she probably lacks a bit of scope. ROLLICKING and New Queen are very closely matched on their 1-2 at Windsor 12 days ago but the former was always holding the latter in the closing stages and can confirm the form on 3lb worse terms. Sophosc got off the mark upped to this trip at Chelmsford but has been hit with a 10lb rise back on Turf. Queen of Jumeirah runs in her first handicap but would need to improve a little on her three runs to date to get involved.
