Verdict

Liberated Lady finished ahead of Lucid Dreamer in the Fred Darling at Newbury when both were making their seasonal reappearances. Existent hasn’t run this year but was also last seen in Group 3 company. Shuv H'penny King arrives here on a hat-trick and Isla Kai has won two of his four career starts, though both of those victories came on soft ground. ARIEL has won his last three and it may be worth sticking with Charlie Hills progressive gelding, despite a further 4lb rise.
