Verdict
Kenstone finished ahead of Leitrim Traveller and Britannia Boy when a well-beaten runner-up at Kempton behind Canford Belle, who runs in the previous division of this. But FABLE OF ARACHNE went close at the same track on her latest start and may well add to her earlier win over course and distance. Both Sophistica and Fabulous Darling will need to improve on their recent efforts in handicaps while Emerald Bay won a seller at Wolverhampton in August and this is not much tougher.
