Verdict
Rod Millman's Easy Terms has arguably the best form among those to have raced but the 70-rated filly is proving to be expensive to follow and this may go to one of the newcomers with the Michael Jarvis-trained LA KALAM looking the pick of them and getting the vote. Beautifully bred being by Dubawi out of a Nashwan mare, the selection could prove to be different class to her rivals. Ralph Beckett's Trade Fair filly Gypsy Carnival is also well bred and could be of interest for a yard that can get one ready first time up. Present Story ran better on a soft surface at Newmarket last month and would have claims if the rain arrived, while David Simcock's Quality Mover is capable but inconsistent.
