Verdict

ARENITE looks capable of better again and can make it third time lucky. Ouragan's second at Newbury is a standout in her 4 starts but it was the only occasion she's tackled turf and she could pose a threat if recapturing that form. Harry Who showed promise as he got the hang of things towards the end of his Thirsk debut and is next on the list.
