QARAABA failed to land her hat-trick at Newmarket three weeks ago but she found only Monday's Zetland Gold Cup winner Danadana too good. That form gives her the beating of Fork Handles and Jiwen has plenty to find on running at Headquarters so Seamus Durack's mare looks to have solid claims. C&D winner Dragonera looks a real threat on her third off today's mark at Ascot and she has the beating of recent amateur race winner Maven on earlier form while Cala Santanyi and Our Gal have place claims on their best efforts.
