The trial race for this featured most of these and it's difficult to see why FINAL SONG (NAP) shouldn't follow up her success there. The Godolphin filly looked set for third place at best when a long way behind Down On Da Bayou and Rio Angie, who were battling it out in the straight, but she produced a blistering turn of foot to catch the pair and win going away. The extra furlong will be in her favour and the result should be confirmed. Dubai Love, Silent Night and Havana Red are all held while the three-times Sweden winner Ascot Brass, who had Silent Night 3 lengths behind at Bro Park in October, is unlikely to have the class for this.
