This median auction contest has attracted entries from some powerful yards. Most of them are newcomers and they could be too strong for those with experience of which Carnival Rose, not beaten far when fourth in a novice stakes here last month, and course and distance second Robert L'echelle look the pick. HAFAAWA is from last year’s winning stable and is a half-sister to a French Listed winner. She can make a winning start ahead of the Sepoy colt Honest Albert, who is a half-brother to two winners, and Mark Johnston’s Nordano, a €28,000 son of Jukebox Jury.
