Race Overview
KATE DADDY (4) ran well in cheekpieces last time out and can do even better over this shorter distance. A narrow choice to win. LEXINGTON GOLD (5) is better over further but will strip fitter after his last run and is capable of being a threat at this level. BREMONTIER (11) is likely to improve back on the grass and can fight out the finish. CALCUTTA CUP (1) showed improvement last time out and is another to consider.
Selection:
4 - 5 - 11
