QUEEN KINDLY has failed to figure in Group 1 races recently but won at Pontefract the last time she competed at this level. She’s penalised for that success but is taken to confirm running with the placed horses, Eartha Kitt and Classical Times, as well as stablemate The Wagon Wheel. Spiritual Lady is a Listed winner and should be sharper for a recent comeback run with Ryan Moore taking over the reins while the progressive Thafeera bids for a four-timer though needs to improve again. Perfect Angel and Quench Dolly would both prefer some cut in the ground and Tirania has plenty to find on these terms.
