There is little strong form to assess so it's imperative the likes of White Desert for Godolphin, Lynique for William Haggas and Saroog for Simon Crisford are monitored carefully in the market. The runner-up effort of Love Conquers at Windsor on her second start reads as the best form of offer but a chance is taken with OUJA. John Gosden's Sea The Stars filly has not been seen since sent off a heavily-backed favourite last term on her Doncaster debut but was never competitive. Obviously well thought of prior to that outing, she'll hopefully now prove herself a decent filly in the making. The Sandown maiden in which Munthany came home in fourth spot was not a particularly strong contest but it was a fair first effort and he should progress for the run.
