Verdict

It is hard to escape the claims of KUPATANA. She did plenty wrong last time at Lingfield but still managed to come away with victory on her second trip to the racetrack. A hood is applied now in a bid to help her settle and, if she does that, this looks a winnable chance for her again. Dinos Benefit has joined a leading yard after showing promise at Wincanton and is feared most ahead of Kestrel Valley.
