SEA TSARINA bids to defy a penalty having made a winning debut when successful at Yarmouth and may well do so in this company. She beat a Roger Varian-trained horse on that occasion and the latter runs Asraabb, who showed only a modicum of improvement at Wolverhampton last time though is still preferred to both Next Chapter and Risk Averse. The newcomer Midnight Moll cost 210,000gns as a half-sister to Group 1 winner Rizeena among others and is worth a second glance.
