Investiture is a nicely-bred daughter of Invincible Spirit who should win races but a number of today's rivals are likely to improve considerably on their first run. Dose kept on when third at Redcar while Izmir caught the eye behind Farandine at Newmarket, though an extra furlong probably wouldn't have come amiss. INITIALLY missed the break and then ran green when favourite at Kempton but was making up ground hand-over-fist in the closing stages and will know more today. Arize was only beaten half-a-length when third over track and trip on debut but this looks a stronger maiden.
