ICE GALA will likely start at restrictive odds but is impossible to oppose. She has been holding her own in much better company and has been sent here for a confidence-booster after failing to justify favouritism in her last two starts – soft ground proved no problem on her debut at Newmarket. Jockey bookings suggest Cuzzoni will be the pick of John Quinn’s two debutantes and the 40,000gns daughter of Rave’s Pass cane make the frame. Country Star weakened quickly once headed at Chelmsford last week but should strip fitter today.
