Verdict

Preference is for RAVEENA, who went down only to a fellow improver on all-weather debut on return at Newcastle recently and with further progress on the cards, Jack Channon's filly will prove a tough nut to crack. Charging Bull has been off the track for a year since his promising debut but rates the main threat, with stable-switcher Middleton View rounding off the shortlist.
