Rated 74, Calling Rio is the most exposed of these having placed over track and trip last time but SHEIKHA REIKA is preferred. The latter was caught close home at Newmarket on her latest start and should confirm running with Hadith, who was more than four lengths behind but makes more appeal than stablemate and newcomer Espadrille. Of the other newcomers, Saving Grace is a half-sister to Listed winner and former stable companion Lady Of Dubai while Crystal Hope, Hot Off The Press and Voluminous are others to note.
