Race preview
TARAWA's fourth in the 1,000 Guineas here stands out and she also accounted for Lord Massusus (fourth) and Salt Lake City (fifth) when a close second over that same C&D in a Listed race three weeks ago. Getting both an age and sex allowance, Dermot Weld's filly receives weight from them all and she is fancied to make a successful return to her winning trip. However, it won't be easy, with the latter capable of much better and Jumbly respected dropping back to 7f after big runs in defeat over further. Power Under Me and Honey Girl add further spice to an interesting contest.
