Verdict

Flag Carrier drops back down in trip after placed efforts over 7f at Kempton while Invincible Speed steps up in distance after finishing third at Newcastle. King Street posted a much better effort over today’s trip at Wolverhampton and Mesaafi is a likely improver but a chance is taken on the newcomer QUEEN MAKER. She’s related to a couple of winning stablemates including the Group 2 winner Lusail and both made winning debuts.
