Copper Rose has finished closest of those with racecourse experience but drops back down in trip after finishing fourth over 1m2f here. Exoptable made only a modest debut but is a likely improver and is preferred to Htilominlo but a newcomer may prove good enough in this. San Diaco is related to winners in Italy and Lope Scholar is a half-sister to the useful Listed winner Gm Hopkins among others but the Dubawi filly SEVERNAYA is the first foal of a Group 3 winner and John Gosden’s filly may prove the one to side with especially if the betting speaks in her favour.
