Verdict

ZARINCA produced a promising first effort when runner-up over 6f at Newcastle recently and, with this step up in trip a plus, she looks the way to go. Newcomer Eastern Veil is not short of appeal on paper and she'll be particularly interesting if the market speaks in her favour, while Polka Blue showed enough in a Kempton novice recently to suggest that she could play a part.
