AL AMEED (7) is a four-year-old import having his first run for the Amy Murphy stable. Hasn't raced since finishing second over 2011m at Chelmsford five months ago. Not seen at the trials but he can return in winning form. ISTANBLUE (1) returns after a spell of six months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1600m at Lyon-Parilly. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. LYNX WESTMINSTER (13) will appreciate the longer journey after finishing a solid fourth when resuming last start over 1400m at Chantilly All Weather. Races well when second-up. Solid top-three chance. LORIA (11) is back after a break of five months. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing second at her latest appearance over 1800m at Clairefontaine. Nicely placed and can figure in the finish.
