Race Overview

ZARDOZI (1) looks the obvious. She atoned for a luckless run at Sandown-Hillside to come away from them and win the G2 Edward Manifold here over 1600m nicely last start. Her breeding suggests 2000m will pose no issue at all and with a good ride from the barrier she should go close. AMAZONIAN LASS (5) ran quite well behind Zardozi when leading. She should get an easy time of it on speed with Tim Clark on board and prove tough to get past. KONASANA (3) has ticked the 2000m box, working home well in the G3 Ethereal Stakes behind Autumn Angel. That looks the right form and she'll be very hard to hold out. AETHELFLAED (10) is the smoky. She was far too good in a Class 1 at Kembla Grange last time and profiles as a stayer who can measure up. HARLOW MIST (4) won the Oaks trial here two back and must be considered.
