Race preview
FLORIDA took a step forward when fifth at this venue last time out and it would be no surprise if the William Haggas-trained colt shed the maiden tag at the third time of asking. The son of No Nay Never failed to see out a mile on that occasion but he can progress further stepping back in trip. Gentle cost 180,000 euro as a yearling and is worth close consideration on racecourse debut, while Al Alaali completes the shortlist.
