In depth

Verdict

Arabian Romance won at Yarmouth on her first outing for a new yard and can figure again while Bellazada scored at Newmarket on her reappearance with dual novice winner Serena's Queen behind and she’s not out of this either. But it could be the turn of MORROOJ today as she was narrowly beaten at Salisbury on her seasonal debut when finishing clear of the rest and Roger Varian’s filly can go one better. Valentinka didn’t get the best of runs on her return from a lay-off and looks a likely improver.
