Carolinae ran well for second at last week’s All-Weather Championships at Lingfield when finishing in front of Lucymai with Soul Silver and Summer Icon further behind. But this looks even tougher and Hunaina is preferred given the success of the French raiders at last week’s Championships as she won on the all-weather track at Chantilly last month. Shenanigans is upped in class for her return to action while though Smart Call was no match for the likes of Highland Reel in the Hong Kong Vase in December she has leading claims on today’s terms, though LA FIGLIA should give her plenty to think about. A close-up fourth behind Muffri’Ha, rated 107, in Listed company on only her second start, an entry in the Lockinge suggest there’s more to come from the Frankel filly this year and Jeremy Noseda’s charge gets the nod.
