Verdict
Interweave sets the standard with a mark of 78 having finished runner-up in all three starts last year. She’ll go close with Ryan Moore back on board but the newcomer, EXTRA MILE, gets the vote for a yard in red-hot form. Saeed Bin Suroor’s Frankel filly is a half-sister to a winner and entered in the 1000 Guineas. Fairy Lights made a promising start at Kempton in October and that looks stronger form than the placed effort of Fiendish but Dubai Waves should appreciate the return to a mile having finished lame over 1m2f last time.
