THE MUMS has gone close in handicaps the last twice and looks capable of conceding weight to these. The return to 7f is no problem for John Gosden’s filly but Kaaba Stone has something to prove on her reappearance having placed over 5f at Chepstow back in September. No More Thrills failed to show any progress at Newbury on her latest start but Zadorra is a half-sister to a winner and she may prove best of the newcomers ahead of Catskill Flyer and Belated Breath.
