Littledidyouknow landed a double at Southwell before struggling in Listed company in France back in May. She has plenty to find with AMARILLO STAR on today’s terms and the latter gets the vote on his all-weather debut having placed at Ascot and gone close at Bath this year. Ivatheengine is another returning to action having won at Windsor earlier and switching yards subsequently while the newcomer Criseyde won’t need to be anything special to prove best of the remainder.
