Just An Inkling ran her best race so far when fourth at Epsom while Asense has been thereabouts on fast going here recently and is preferred to stablemate Parikarma. But DESTINADO went close on soft ground when trained in France last year and may prove the one to side with having tumbled down the weights since joining Tony Carroll and placing at Chelmsford last time. Rodolfo could prove best of the rest.
