Half Sovereign (5/4), Awaafi (2/1), Assaranca (8/1), Goldie Bear (10/1), Dubai Time (12/1), Senorita Vega (14/1)

This can go the way of HALF SOVEREIGN, who continued her race-by-race progression when scoring with a bit in hand at Yarmouth on her latest outing. She looks capable of better still switched to a handicap and can see off the challenge of Awaafi, who has shaped as if stepping up to 7f should suit, with Goldie Bear also considered if taking up this engagement.
