Malindi was beaten a long way when fourth at Doncaster in August and may have improved since. Tijuca steps up in trip after her third at Lingfield last month and she can figure while Elusive could finish closer over today's distance having made her debut in a bumper at Kempton. The remainder with experience have shown nothing to recommend them so far and the newcomer PRINCESS KHELEYF might be up to landing this. She's a half-sister to five winners and won't have to be anything special to make a winning start in this company.
