KAYF WILLOW (NAP) beat Lady Of Longstone at Newton Abbot with something to spare and a 5lb rise in the weights may not be too much of a hindrance to Philip Hobbs' mare. She is preferred to the promising novice Desert Queen, pulled-up in a Grade 1 at Fairyhouse in April, while Kalane also found Grade 1 company tough when beaten a long way at Punchestown by Annie Power back in May. Double Silver landed a double at Ludlow in the same month and is 6lb higher today but still preferred to Perth winner Tara Mist who beat little on that occasion.
