It will be interesting to see how the dual bumper winner Cuckoo's Calling fares on her Flat/AW debut but this could develop into a straight shoot-out between the other two three-year-old's Warm Oasis and STAR STORY. Though the former has the more eyecatching pedigree, he raced a little awkwardly at Lingfield last time so preference is for Ralph Beckett's filly in receipt of 5lbs having gone close in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time despite pulling hard.
