      In depth

      Verdict

      Arc Cara has been showing good pace over an extra furlong and should be suited by the drop in trip with blinkers applied for the first time. MARASIM had hinted at ability on Polytrack before a much improved run over this track and trip last month behind a couple of better fancied rivals. This isn't the best of maidens so with more progress likely he can get off the mark. Godolphin's My Call is bred to stay much further but this isn't the toughest of starts and it would be no shock so see her making a successful debut. Totally Magic is bred for speed and ran well enough at Catterick despite looking green to suggest a race will be found for her.
