Verdict
A couple of these made promising debuts. COMPANIONSHIP finished in front of Ms Gandhi when runner-up from a wide draw at Kempton last time and normal progress should see the Haggas filly off the mark. She’s just preferred to Quenelle D'or, beaten only a neck at Nottingham and likely to go close again. The Gosden pair Bint Al Anood and Hamhama can only improve from moderate debut efforts while Alan King runs a couple of newcomers with Who Cares Wins a half-sister to smart stablemate Who Dares Wins and Quintessa related to a Listed winner.
