The well-bred Fearless Warrior is related to a number of winners and looks the pick of the newcomers here, although Power Of Life is also of interest on her racecourse debut, but this can go to one of the five with racecourse experience. There’s likely to be more to come from Catch The Cuban, and Good Fortune ran well at Newmarket last time but preference is for NAKAKANDE. She has been racing in much better company and will appreciate this drop in class, as well as the step up in trip. It wouldn’t be a huge surprise to see Pourmorechampagne make the frame on debut but Big Ian is likely to need further.
