Sea The Moon filly ESMERAY has improved with every start and was an impressive winner at Ffos Las last month, justifying strong support in the process. She is open to further progress now sent handicapping and looks to have found a good opportunity to follow up with Rob Hornby getting the leg up now.

Market Value failed to fire behind Sea Theme at York last time but her form before that would make her the danger. Shagpyle looked promising initially but also has a bit to prove now off the back of a heavy enough defeat at Doncaster last time.

Charlie Appleby and William Buick have been on fire this week and they have another strong book of chances at Kempton on Friday. Dubawi filly WHISPERING WORDS was well backed before opening her account at Newmarket last month and with further improvement should be able to make it 2 wins from 3 starts.

Venus Rosewater is also by Frankel and she got within half a length of opening her account over C&D last time. If she builds on that she will be the danger but don’t rule out a big run from Velvet Crush either as I think she is better than what she showed at Chelmsford.
