It should be a case of third time lucky for DESERT SPRING, who stepped up on what she showed on her sole 2-y-o start when a close third over 1¼m at Leicester last month, leaving the strong impression that she will benefit from this stiffer test. Pyleates made an encouraging enough start to her career at Kempton and is the clear pick for forecast purposes. Sovereign Applause could be the one to pick up third-place prize money.
