Pure Shores has the most recent form of those with experience having finished second over 1m2f at Chelmsford but William Buick prefers stablemate Fashion Theory. The latter was placed at Doncaster back in October and NESHMEYA was fourth at Yarmouth in the same month. Charlie Hills’ Oaks entry finished behind last week’s Dubai Duty Free winner Shutter Speed on her second start and looks to have every chance on that form. Serenada and So Sleek look sure to be winning this year while Apphia, Love Conquers and Symbol are newcomers to note for the future.
