Gypsy Spirit is penalised for winning over 5f at Windsor with Nina Petrovna back in fifth and may find one of the newcomers too good in this. 400,000gns purchase Repulse Bay is one to note while Royal Intervention is related to a host of winners and could well. But OCTAVE is also a half-sister to no less than eight winners and with Mark Johnston’s yard in such good form and Silvestre De Sousa doing the steering, she gets the vote. Brassica is another worth a second glance in the betting.
