Unless there is something decent amongst the newcomers, POWER AND PEACE should be good enough despite an absence since beaten a length over 7f at Kempton in September after holding every chance at this trip. Polly's Gold has an even longer absence to overcome having changed stables since disappointing on soft ground at Chepstow. She's shown good pace in all of her races and though making her all-weather debut looks a threat. Los Camachos made a very promising debut at Wolverhampton but didn't get going on a return visit on Boxing Day. Folie Douze is very speedily bred and is one to note in the market.
