Verdict
A winner at Doncaster on her debut, Quintada could only manage third carrying a penalty at Haydock last month. It remains to be seen how Faro Angel copes penalised for scoring over 7f here last time though this extra distance should suit but the advantage lies with GLOBAL HEAT on these terms. The Godolphin colt was surrounded by subsequent winners when narrowly beaten over 7f at Chelmsford on his debut and can open his account on the strength of that form. Laafy and Travel On are likely improvers for powerful yards with Ryan Moore taking over the reins on the former while Wedding Blue and Pour Me A Drink make most appeal of the newcomers.
