Port Of Call made all on both occasions when landing a double at Epsom but the less-exposed JUMEIRAH STREET is preferred. The latter won a novice race over track and trip before placing at Chelmsford on her handicap debut and James Tate’s filly should go close again. Diva Star finished runner-up here last time and is preferred to Fink Hill over today’s trip while Harbour Approach is another to consider partnered by Silvestre De Sousa today after placing at Chelmsford.
