Race Tip
KALPANA (12) looks to have grown up both physically and mentally throughout the course of the season and can now strike at the top level. The well-bred Andrew Balding trained filly produced an excellent display landing the G3 September Stakes at Kempton and could have more to give. Soft ground will pose no problem for TIFFANY (7), who returned to winning ways in a G2 at Baden-Baden (Ger) after finishing second in the 1m4f G2 Lancashire Oaks at Haydock during July. CONTENT (10) was well-held in the G1 Prix De L'Opera last time. No surprise if she returns to form of her G1 Yorkshire Oaks success at York in August. TIME LOCK (8) completes the shortlist.
