ORCHIDIA hasn’t raced since July but went close over track and trip on that occasion and that’s the best piece of form on offer. She may well prove good enough on her reappearance given the remainder are hard to recommend on what little they’ve shown so far though Early Riser may well improve for this longer distance. Of the newcomers, John Gosden introduces the Godolphin filly Finespun and the latter is a half-sister to no less than seven winners. She’s preferred to Mercury Dime and Kelis and should be noted for any strong support.
