Love Interest is penalised for making a winning debut at Newcastle in October and CONSENSUS DE VEGA can take advantage. The latter finished behind a subsequent winner when third at Newmarket in the same month and Roger Varian’s yard is in good form. The Oaks entry Nashwa placed at the sane Newmarket fixture as the selection and the latter’s stablemate Wonderful Times cost 350,000gns as a yearling. Irresistable has a more recent run at Headquarters under her belt and should finish closer today.
