Verdict

There is a slight question mark hanging over Invoke as, though she was only beaten a neck at Newcastle last time, she's 2lb higher here and isn't really proven in this better grade. We prefer WHITE RUSSIAN (NAP), who is a generally progressive sort who didn't really enjoy the tacky ground at Newmarket last month. Khatiba doesn't look a straightforward ride and still hasn't managed a win on Turf while Gown keeps finding one too good. Kempton second Princess Spirit looks up against it while older fillies Saucy Minx and Pretty Bubbles might struggle to give the weight to their younger rivals.
