Miss Antonia sets the standard, Macie was an eyecatcher on debut but we'll take a chance with INQAATH. Henry Cecil has enjoyed a fine week and Miss Antonia has to figure prominently in calculations but the standard that she sets is by no means insurmountable and she looks worth opposing in what could be a strong maiden. Bursary is a well related expensive purchase who could go well but we're going to side with a similar type in Inqaath whose yard have a near one in four strike rate here. Old Adage and Quick Deal also look the part on paper whilst Macie wasn't given too hard a time of things on debut at Lingfield and looks sure to improve for that initial experience whilst Jawal showed promise on debut and is surely better than he was able to show last time. A good performance from Wulfrida in the preceding race would boost the form claims of Tamarillo Grove but Richard Hills prefers Inqaath to Kayaan and so do we.
