Kool Katie can land this at the expense of Jazenio and Lady Vibeeka. The selection has run two promising races to date and has course form when second on her debut over six furlongs. She looked a doubtful stayer on her next outing over seven furlongs at Southwell and will be better suited to this trip and surface. If able to capture her best form she is the one they all have to beat. Jazenio has improved with each and every run and caught the eye when third to Kingsgate Castle over six furlongs at Lingfield last time out. She has to be a live danger if improving once again. Lady Vibeeka has had her chances without success and is coming back from a break. She has proven form on the all weather albeit none of it at this track. But having said that she had become frustrating to follow and she is probably best watched once again even if freshness can bring some spring in her step. So for the winner we return to Kool Katie.
