The market should offer most clues and Cape Cobra is taken to dispose of Nice To Know and Six Of Hearts. Cape Cobra ran a promising race on debut and probably learnt plenty when fourth to Transcend. That reads as good form in a race lacking any and we select accordingly. Nice To Know ran too free in the early stages of her Newbury race and it would be no surprise to see punters following the filly in an effort to glean compensation. Six Of Hearts didn't look to get a mile at Southwell and is sensibly dropped in trip. Pagan Belief showed enough speed at Newmarket to believe that he was worth persevering with. Up The Chimney is a half-brother to Umistim so is of obvious interest if the market offers positive vibes. Cape Velvet has had her chances previously but off a mark of 77, she represents a high benchmark for the relative newcomers to aim at. A fair maiden by the course's standards and Cape Cobra looks most open to improvement on all racecourse evidence.
