Several of these can be given a chance of sorts though collateral form gives maiden winner Shamlan something to find with Mezzotint on their respective defeats of Thawraat. FEI KUAI (NAP) is another maiden winner on the up and Luca Cumani's filly may prove good enough having returned an easy winner at Chepstow last time. Faintly and Arlecchino's Leap found only one too good on their latest outings at the track and can figure but this is tougher than the claimer Logans Lad won here last month.
