In depth

Verdict

SAORLA is fitted with a hood having gone close at Newcastle. Andrew Balding has trained two of her half-brothers to victory and switches her to Turf for a race that probably won’t require much winning. Soi Dao caught the eye at Windsor earlier in the season though she’s been unable to build upon that effort in two subsequent visits to Leicester. Ae Fond Kiss showed a first glimpse of form in a maiden at Southwell and the fourth has gone on to win a race at this track but Bakewell and Fawn At Play have it all to do.
