LADY MALET should be opening her account here. She failed to land the odds when runner-up over C&D last week when Polar Forest was well beaten in sixth but can make amends in this company. Al Gharrafa has plenty of improving to do to figure but still makes more appeal than the more exposed Duchess Of Dreams who in turn should have the measure of Firey Sally and Shesthecaptain.
