Navarre Express still has time on her side but ALBANY has the stand-out form in this having gone close at Kempton and over course and distance this summer. The latter finished also two lengths ahead of Tarraff at Kempton with Deep Dive, who missed the break, even further behind. High Fashion was easy to back at Salisbury in May and finished last so will need to improve significantly on that if she is to win races. Highland Quartz is best watched on debut.
