WHISPERING WINDS would have run Great Havana close here a couple of weeks ago had she not missed the break. She’s been raised 2lb but must have a good chance of going one better. Lucrosa has only run over 5f so far but she is a half-sister to winners over 6f and 7f. Astaroth carries a penalty for winning at Wolverhampton but Saffie Osborne claims 5lb and Zain Nibras was only beaten a neck at Beverley, though looks closely matched with Gangway on collateral form.
