Verdict

There is no form for backers to go here so what can only be a tentative vote goes to Intricate Dance, who is preferred to Spinneret and Promising Lead. The last mentioned is, like the selection, owned by Khalid Abdullah and Sir Michael Stoute's filly has to be respected but may do better over further. A market move for Caro Mio would be of interest but she is likely to do better on a softer surface and of more interest may be James Fanshawe's Sister Act, who is a sister to the Soviet Song. Azeema comes from a yard that does well with their runners at this time of year and has to be considered as does stablemate Mabaahej. The Michael Jarvis-trained Spinneret has a speedy pedigree and may find this trip beyond her in a race where the vote goes to Intricate Dance. A half-sister to the useful Short Dance, the Barry Hills-trained filly represents a yard in fair form and she may be good enough to make a winning debut.
