VENTURA KINGDOM seemed stretched by the trip at Thirsk on Wednesday and is of interest fitted with headgear back at a more suitable distance having eased another 1 lb. It's very rare for Royal Countess not to run some kind of race at this track so she is feared most ahead of Capla Lass, who caught the eye at Musselburgh on handicap bow/return last week.
