Lucky Shake is usually up with the pace before finding little at the business end but she had Arlecchino's Gift behind when well beaten at Bath last time and should confirm the form. Benzema didn't handle 6f on soft ground at Haydock and should do better over this track and trip but FREYABELLA made a very promising debut on Polytrack at Lingfield before finding 6f too far on a return visit and the Windsor Castle Stakes way beyond her. She gets a tentative vote in a tricky opener in which nothing can be ruled out. Danger Close would have a chance on his close third at Bath but ran poorly at Lingfield on Saturday.
