STRANAGONE was only headed in the closing stages on her track and trip debut then looked like winning again before caught by Ishigati inside the final furlong. She looks the one to beat here though Lappet had shown some ability in maidens on Turf before an even better run on her debut in a handicap here last month where she didn't quite get the run of the race. King Of Leinster made his debut on the surface early last month and gave a good account though may do better in a handicap. Make A Challenge showed improved form behind View The Bay over 7f last week but Roman Warrior became disappointing in the UK after two second places in the summer. The Game Of Life is by Oasis Dream out of a mare from a top-class family and Joseph O'Brien's newcomer is one to note in the market.
