LARADO did well to hold off Lord Rapscallion and Wodeton in a blanket finish at Epsom last month and could complete the double raised only 2lb. Crown Princess needs to bounce back from a poor run here last month but Qipao was a winner over track and trip earlier while Outsmart led briefly here last time before finishing second to Poet’s Dawn. Autumn Festival has run up a sequence recently and now has an excellent strike-rate but she has gone up another 6lb, though can’t be ignored.
