A Group 1 penalty is not to be taken lightly, but LAURENS looked both better and pacier than ever at Deauville last time, and she is well worth trying at this trip again given her forward-going nature. Speak In Colours is unexposed at this trip and should get closer to Sir Dancealot than he did at Goodwood last time, meeting trouble there, and better off at the weights now.
