Verdict

FARINET left his reappearance effort behind to bring up a second course victory here 4 weeks ago, and with further progress on the cards now stepping up in trip, Venetia Williams' charge gets the vote. Linelee King probably would've made it 2-2 in this sphere bar a mid-race blunder at Ayr so he's the obvious danger, ahead of Deise Aba, who bids for a third consecutive win in this race.
