FLORAL SPLENDOUR found life tough in Listed company at Haydock last time but made a successful debut at the same track before that and gets the vote returning to her winning trip. Mutalaaqy showed promise over a longer distance here on his debut while Rumailah is preferred to Banphrionsanaluas having switched yards since her racecourse bow. Queen Of Ipanema is the first foal of a Listed winner and makes more appeal than Mars Magic.
