Verdict

Persian Herald and Hernando Torres have it all to do in this company, while Calaf and El Torbellino have improved this year without winning. In contrast, Arabian Star and Ivan Vasilevich have both done their fair share of winning and may not be finished yet off their current marks, but UMSEYAT looks capable of matching them here. She ran out an easy winner over a mile at Haydock in October and will be suited by today's extra distance on her belated reappearance and handicap debut.
