SOFFIA just about shades the verdict on the basis of her close second at Navan when last spotted. If she's progressed over the winter then a race like this should be within her grasp. Hawaam was also second at that same track a mere 18 days ago and merits plenty respect while newcomers Excelling Spirit and Clifftop Dancer are worth paying attention to.
